According to Football.london, Enzo Fernández wants to leave Chelsea this summer.

Florentino has been re-elected as Real Madrid president, which could significantly impact Enzo Fernández's future. For some time, the Chelsea midfielder has been linked with a move to the Bernabéu, and Mourinho is also ready to embark on a new phase.

Football.london understands that Enzo wants to leave Chelsea this summer. Chelsea hopes to keep the Argentina international, who joined from Benfica in 2023 for £106.7 million. However, if an offer of £120 million is received, Chelsea will not stand in his way.

It is understood that Real Madrid is interested in signing Enzo, but it is currently unclear whether Real Madrid is willing to pay Chelsea's asking price. Pérez is expected to officially appoint Mourinho as the new head coach after winning Real Madrid's first contested presidential election since 2006.

During the campaign, the 79-year-old "old man" also announced that Konaté and Dumfries would join Real Madrid if he remained in power. Florentino served as Real Madrid president from 2009 to the present and from 2000 to 2006. He also promised to submit an offer of over €150 million, approximately £129.6 million, for an unnamed "Galáctico" level player.

It is still unclear who Pérez plans to sign, but he has given some clues. Last week, while almost ruling out the possibility of signing Enzo, Florentino said: "On Tuesday, I will make an offer to an important Champions League club for an excellent player."

Florentino added: "This will be the highest amount Real Madrid has ever paid for a player. At least €150 million. Not Michael Olise, he is a great player, but not Olise. Nor Jeremy Doku, nor Haaland."

Florentino continued: "Not Harry Kane. He is a midfielder or a more advanced player, and he is not a Premier League player. He is a 'Galáctico' level player in every sense of the word. But we will talk to his club first."

After defeating rival Enrique Riquelme to become president, Pérez spoke about his goal of winning championships and making history. He said: "We achieved the second-best results in Real Madrid's history."

Florentino said: "This is an extraordinary result... Today, Real Madrid won. We showed the world an example of democracy. We will continue to work for Real Madrid, so that the team continues to win championships... I want to thank everyone involved. Together, we still have a lot of history to make."

Although Chelsea has received good news in fending off Real Madrid's interest, Enzo's future at Stamford Bridge remains uncertain. In April, Javier Pastore revealed that contract extension talks had stalled.

The Argentine player's agent said: "Yes, both sides talked about an extension. We started discussions around December or January, but we couldn't reach an agreement."

Pastore said: "Enzo has 6 years left on his contract, so we decided not to extend it because the terms were not suitable for us or the player. Given Enzo's current ability, he deserves much more than his current earnings."

Pastore said: "We didn't reach an agreement, which might displease the club because he is a very important player, but these things must be handled properly. We believe that instead of extending under conditions that would not satisfy the player, it is better to maintain the status quo and focus on the game and performance. When the time is not right, we don't want to get into discussions about numbers, contracts, and negotiations. Our plan is to meet with Chelsea again after the World Cup, and if an agreement cannot be reached, to explore other options."
