Jose Mourinho is reportedly determined to sign Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez once he becomes the next manager of Real Madrid.
The Portuguese tactician has already agreed a reunion with Los Blancos, and the La Liga giants are negotiating a compensation fee with Benfica.
It is only a matter of time before Mourinho returns to Madrid, and reports claim that he is eager to land a marquee central midfielder this summer.
Fernandez has been earmarked as a top target, and formal talks could be held with Chelsea in the coming weeks to sort out a suitable deal.
Chelsea want at least £120 million on the table for the World Cup winner's sale, but Madrid believe they can sign him for just over £100m.
Fernandez will be reporting with Argentina ahead of the World Cup, and his transfer to any club is unlikely to be sorted until after the tournament.
Manchester City are also firm admirers of the talented ace. Former Blues boss Enzo Maresca is set to be appointed as Man City's new manager.
