Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez has given the green light to join Manchester City during the ongoing transfer window, according to reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano.
The Argentine has been linked with a move away from the Blues for the past few months, and he could move on before the transfer deadline on September 1.
Fernandez was a substitute in Chelsea's 3-2 Premier League win over Fulham yesterday, but manager Xabi Alonso refused to rule out his departure after the game.
It has now been revealed that the 25-year-old has said 'yes' to the Cityzens, and talks are expected soon between the clubs to secure an agreement on the transfer package.
Chelsea want around £120 million to sell the Argentine, but Man City remain optimistic of landing him for a lesser fee before the transfer window slams shut.
The Blues are likely to pursue a new central midfielder if Fernandez departs. Bournemouth's Alex Scott could re-emerge as a target in the near future.
