Enzo Fernandez’s poor performance in Chelsea’s 2-0 defeat to Manchester City on Sunday was blasted by pundits including Gary Neville. Goals from Erling Haaland and Mateo Kovacic got the reigning champions off to the perfect start as they kicked-off their Premier League campaign at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea had their moments but largely struggled in Enzo Maresca’s first game in charge, with Fernandez coming in for a lot of scrutiny. The midfielder, who wore the captain’s armband in Reece James’ absence, was already under the microscope having been at the centre of a racism row following Argentina’s Copa America win and endured a very difficult opening-half. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #mancity #erlinghaaland #mateo #enzomaresca #football

Enzo Maresca has boldly confirmed Enzo Fernandez as Chelsea's vice-captain, despite the Argentine's embroilment in a racism scandal that threatened to fracture the team. Fernandez, central to the controversy from a derogatory song during Copa America celebrations, faced backlash from teammate Wesley Fofana. Apologizing both publicly and privately, Fernandez has now been entrusted with a pivotal leadership role.

In a dramatic turn, Enzo Fernandez has been captured alongside his Chelsea teammates for the first time since issuing his apology over a controversial video.

Real Madrid's backbone, Nacho, has officially called it quits after 24 years, leaving fans in shock and awe.

His heartfelt goodbye speaks volumes of his journey, commitment, and love for the Madridistas. Now, on to his next adventure with family, but the big question is this, are Real Madrid losing just a player, or the very soul of the team? #football #realmadrid #nacho #mbappe #spain #uefa #cr7 #fernandez #champion #post #fyp #explore #explorepage #exploremore #instagram #instagood #instadaily #instalike #reels #viral #trending #reelsinstagram #trend

Real Madrid might secure Alphonso Davies for free as Bayern Munich changes stance. Despite accepting a contract offer, Bayern retracted it, leaving Davies' future uncertain with his current deal ending in 2025. Bayern's new "renew or sell" policy means they could keep Davies next season to convince him to stay. Real Madrid, fresh off signing Endrick Felipe and Kylian Mbappe, are willing to wait, mirroring the Mbappe saga. This gives them time to focus on signing Leny Yoro for central defense, addressing the uncertain futures of Rafa Marin and Nacho Fernandez. How will Real Madrid navigate the complex transfer saga to potentially secure Alphonso Davies and reinforce their squad with key defensive signings?

Chelsea have performed a U-turn and blocked two more players from featuring at the Olympic Games in Paris. As Olympic football is not formally recognised by FIFA, clubs are not obliged to release players for the competition. Chelsea had already blocked Malo Gusto and Benoit Badiashile from representing France in their home Olympics this summer and the Daily Mail say Enzo Fernandez and Mykhailo Mudryk have also been told they will not be granted permission to feature. #FootballFanArena #OlympicFootball #Chelsea #FIFA
