Fernández Joins City for Record Fee | MLS News

Enzo Fernández is officially a Manchester City star after a jaw-dropping $169 million transfer — the highest in Premier League history. Reuniting with his former boss Enzo Maresca, the midfielder’s move was fueled by his desire to return to his mentor, sparking drama, fan backlash, and tense negotiations at Chelsea. With Maresca now leading City, Fernández joins a squad chasing Champions League glory — while Chelsea, already reeling from massive summer sales, loses not just a superstar but also their best chance to replace him. This deal makes Fernández the only player ever to earn two transfers over $135 million, cementing his status as one of football’s most valuable assets.
