According to O Jogo, despite interest from Manchester City, Barcelona, and Real Madrid, Argentina’s World Cup winner Enzo Fernandez is prioritizing a move to Premier League powerhouse Liverpool
Benfica took a risk and accomplished something that no one could have predicted six months ago. They took advantage of the £18 million release clause in Enzo Fernandez’s River Plate contract.
Even the most passionate Benfica supporter could not have predicted how far Enzo would progress in such a short period of time.
The 21-year-old playmaker smiled for images on Sunday night at Qatar’s Lusail Stadium while carrying a World Cup winner’s medal around his neck, the Young Player of the Tournament award in one hand, and the Jules Rimet in the other.
Meanwhile, his asking price has risen from £18 million to around £100 million, with the Portuguese giants reluctant to let Enzo depart for anything less than his large release clause.
LIVERPOOL LEAD THE CHASE TO SIGN ARGENTINA’S WORLD CUP WINNER ENZO FERNANDEZ.
According to La Capital, the Merseyside giants have already agreed terms with Enzo’s club. O Jogo has now presented evidence to support his claim. Liverpool will also match any competitive proposal from Real Madrid, Barcelona, or Manchester United.
Liverpool appears to be given ‘priority’ by Enzo.
Enzo has declared his desire to become the most expensive signing in the history of one of Europe’s most illustrious football clubs. And, as his outstanding performances at the Qatar World Cup revealed, he is not one to buckle under pressure.
Liverpool has a good working relationship with Benfica as well. They agreed to a £64 million deal for Darwin Nunez last August.
“He has a bright future,” Argentina captain Lionel Messi said of Fernandez, who kicked off Sunday’s final victory over France. “Enzo is an exceptional genius.” He exudes charisma and executes fantastic passes. Spectacular.”
His playing talent is outstanding. “At only 21 years old,” ex-Real Madrid coach Jose Peseiro said.
“The best player with whom I worked at Real Madrid was Zinedine Zidane.” Of course, I don’t want to draw parallels. But I’m speaking to Enzo’s brief and incredible vision, which reminds me of Zidane.
“What exactly is Enzo’s age?” Is he 21?”That’s either a blatant lie or a brilliant stroke of genius!”
