Real Madrid are preparing to go "all out" to sign Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez by offering Aurelien Tchouameni in a swap deal. While Fernandez has been pivotal for Chelsea this season with his playmaking ability and contributions, the Blues, dealing with midfield injuries, are highly unlikely to part ways with the Argentine World Cup winner, especially with the transfer deadline approaching.

- Real Madrid is targeting Enzo Fernandez to bolster their midfield.
- The club plans to include Aurelien Tchouameni in a swap deal to secure the Argentine’s transfer.

- While Chelsea fans admire Tchouameni, they wouldn't want to sacrifice Fernandez to bring him in.
- Chelsea's Current Stance:
- Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has highlighted Fernandez's improvement and importance to the team this season.
