With another weekend of Premier League action just around the corner, let’s take this time to look at all the biggest rumours from around England’s top division today.
A Chelsea star is thought to be a transfer target of Real Madrid, as well as two other top European clubs. Meanwhile, two Tottenham Hotspur stars have been named in the Premier League team of the week, following their excellent comeback win over Aston Villa at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez ‘targeted’ by Real Madrid
Chelsea may lose one of their top midfielders - Enzo Fernandez is thought to be in the sights of Real Madrid, according to a recent report from journalist Sacha Tavolieri. In addition to this, he is also being targeted by Barcelona and Inter Milan, according to The Sun.
Fernandez has struggled since he arrived at Stamford Bridge, both on and off the pitch. He has made 13 appearances for Chelsea across all competitions this season, but has yet to score any goals and has only notched up a solitary assist. He joined the club for a whopping fee of £106.8 million in 2023, but has yet to justify this mammoth price tag.
He has fared better on the international stage - Fernandez made his debut for his native Argentina in 2022, winning 32 caps since then and scoring four goals. Not only was he part of their 2022 World Cup winning squad, he also won the Copa America earlier this year.
Radu Dragusin and Dominic Solanke included in Troy Deeney’s Premier League team of the week
Tottenham’s excellent win over Aston Villa at the weekend has not gone without recognition. In particular, Troy Deeney included two Spurs stars - namely, Radu Dragusin and Dominic Solanke - in his Premier League team of the week.
Deeney noted that Dragusin ‘didn’t put a foot wrong’ defensively and described Solanke’s performance as ‘really good’. The former Watford man conceded that he has been a critic of Solanke’s since he made the jump to the Lilywhites, but was proven wrong on Sunday.
Speaking on Dragusin’s performance, Deeney wrote: “I think he was superb coming into a new partnership with Cristian Romero because Micky van de Ven was injured - and then Romero went off too. Dragusin equipped himself well against a very good Aston Villa team and didn't put a foot wrong.”
Meanwhile, on Solanke, Deeney penned: “I have been giving him a bit of stick because I'm not sure if he is the man who will score enough goals to take Tottenham all the way to where they want to be, but he was really good in the win over Villa.
“When I give people stick I also look to give them praise and credit. His goals were two proper poacher's finishes. He was much better and played on the last man, didn't come short and get involved. He was always available for a cross and got his just rewards. Hopefully he can continue and start firing Tottenham to where they want to be.”
