Enzo Fernandez Suspended for Two Games After Real Madrid Remarks

Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez will miss the next two matches after hinting at a move to Real Madrid during the international break. According to interim coach Liam Rosenior, the ban covers the FA Cup quarter-final with Port Vale and the Premier League game against Manchester City. Rosenior said Fernandez crossed a line that went against the club’s culture. He stressed that the decision was backed by ownership and players and described the two-match ban as a sanction, not a dismissal. The coach also praised Marc Cucurella as fully committed after he criticised recruitment policies without facing punishment. Since Rosenior took charge in January, Chelsea have won ten of 19 games. They sit sixth in the Premier League, six points behind the Champions League places.
