Enzo Fernández to Real Madrid

This move fell through. Last report: Fichajes.net, 4 November 2026.

Enzo Fernández is being linked with Real Madrid again, but this is a story about the summer of 2027, not January. Transfer News Live reports that Real Madrid are weighing a move as part of midfield plans for next year, with Barcelona and Atlético Madrid also credited with interest, and some reports tying any City move to possible sanctions over Premier League financial breaches. Fernández joined Manchester City from Chelsea on 1 September 2026 for €145m, barely two months ago, and nothing here suggests City are open to moving him on so soon. TEAMtalk.com first reported interest on 30 September 2025, in a window that has since closed, and Transfer News Live brought the story back on 21 October 2026, then repeated it on 1 and 2 November, with Fichajes.net following on 4 November. All of these later reports trace to the same source, credited as Ekrem Konur, so this is one voice repeated several times, not separate confirmation. No outlet has added a fee, an approach or any contact between the clubs. Given the lack of any club-to-club contact reported and a contract that still has 66 months to run when the January window opens, this looks a long way from happening by then. Real Madrid also issued a flat denial of any interest back in July, which has not been retracted. Call it unlikely before the deadline in January, and only a live story at all for summer 2027. For City to even consider a sale, there would need to be genuine financial pressure from those sanctions, a concrete approach from Madrid, and City's willingness to sell a player bought for €145m just months ago.
