Enzo Fernández remained unconcerned following his recent suspension from Chelsea, as the club’s under-18 team was observed laughing with Marc Cucurella while watching the first team’s match. The Argentine midfielder was absent from Saturday’s FA Cup game against Port Vale due to comments made that suggested a desire to join Real Madrid. Fernández was suspended for two matches by manager Liam Rosenior after a private meeting.
The reason cited was that the under-18 team “crossed a boundary regarding club culture” due to his statements. The midfielder’s absence occurred during a difficult period for Chelsea. He was seen seated behind the team’s benches, appearing calm and relaxed while observing the game.
