Enzo Fernandez is settling into life in a new country and at a new club after arriving during the January transfer window.
He made a massive move coming to England and he has a huge price tag above his head. But so far, he is proving his class game-by-game and showing why Chelsea invested so much money in him.

Obviously moving countries can take it’s toll on some players, and Enzo has admitted that their are a lot of differences between London and previous Cities he lived such as Lisbon and Buenos Aires. One of the key differences is how much colder it is, as Enzo points out in an interview today.
But even though it’s cold, Enzo says that London is beautiful and he’s delighted to be there. He also says that he has struck up connections with Chelsea players on and off the pitch, particularly Kai Havertz and Joao Felix.
In quotes picked up by Goal, Enzo said: “Adapting always takes time, meeting new players. I was among the 10 new players that came in [during the winter]. It’s hard with different languages, so it’s difficult to connect with team-mates at the beginning. As time goes by, we start getting to know our team-mates better and it will get better with time.
“Have I struck up a connection with Kai Havertz and Joao Felix? We do have this connection, away from the pitch as well. But we have many good players. All of our attackers are class and have quality, so all of them can play at the top level. I’ve adapted quite well. London is very different from Lisbon and from Buenos Aires, we all know that already. It’s very cold. I’m still adjusting as best as possible with my family and I’ll be fine. London is very beautiful and I’m delighted.”
Lampard should stop using two number 3 at once.
