We are forgetting Cole Palmer for now as our new target is even better than him. He will add more diversity to our midfield. Chelsea is just wasting his potential” – This is according to Florentino Perez as Real Madrid prepares to make a bold move for a Chelsea standout as they drop Cole Palmer – Executives set to offer the player in a ‘straight swap’ deal.

Real Madrid are reportedly targeting Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández as part of their efforts to bolster their squad for the upcoming transfer window. The Spanish giants, according to D Sports, are highly determined to secure the 24-year-old Argentine’s services, making him one of their top priorities for the winter transfer market.

This is not the first time Real Madrid, also known as Los Blancos, have shown interest in Fernández. However, this time, reports suggest they are ready to make a serious and determined effort to bring him to Santiago Bernabéu.

To make the move possible, Real Madrid are exploring various options, including offloading some of their underperforming players. In fact, they are reportedly open to including one of their own stars, Aurélien Tchouaméni, in a direct swap deal for Fernández. The proposal would involve no additional financial outlay, as Madrid officials are said to be considering a straight player exchange.

Tchouaméni, who is also 24 years old, may be willing to leave the club, especially given recent tensions between him and manager Carlo Ancelotti. On the other hand, Fernández, despite being a key player under Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, could potentially consider departing Stamford Bridge due to ongoing controversies within the club.

As the transfer window approaches its critical stages, both players seem open to the idea of switching teams. With this high-profile swap deal on the horizon, further updates and negotiations are expected in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen how this story will unfold and how it will be received by fans and media in Spain and England.
