Emmanuel Petit believes two key Chelsea players will try to follow Enzo Fernandez out the exit door at Stamford Bridge this summer.

Fernandez has repeatedly hinted he wants to leave Chelsea since the Blues were knocked out of the Champions League by holders PSG.

Speaking immediately after the embarrassing 8-2 aggregate defeat, Fernandez refused to commit his long-term future to Chelsea, saying he ‘did not know’ if he would still be at the club next season.

Fernandez subsequently said he would ‘see’ after the World Cup when asked to clarify his comments and responding to speculation linking him with a move to Real Madrid.

The La Liga giants have expressed interest in signing Fernandez and will have taken note of his recent admission that he would ‘like’ to live in Madrid.

Fernandez has been a mainstay in the Chelsea team since his £107m move from Benfica in 2023, making over 150 appearances for the Blues and helping them win both the Club World Cup and Conference League last season.

Ex-Chelsea midfielder Petit believes Fernandez is one of three key first-team players who are ‘tired’ of the Stamford Bridge project and considering moves ahead of the summer transfer window.
