Real Madrid Are Pushing For Luka Modric’s Heir With 20 G/A So Far This Season: Will He Be A Good Fit For Los Blancos?

Real Madrid have entered a stage of profound rethought of reconstructing their squad. The club are no longer just a dominator of today, but have begun to think clearly about how to sustain their power in the years to come. With several legends nearing the end of their cycle, the board are looking to rejuvenate the core of the team without losing competitiveness.

The Bernabéu is asking for freshness, but without sacrificing quality. Players like Bellingham and Camavinga have already opened the door to a new era. Even so, it is not enough. You need someone to contribute from the first pass to the last shot. And that is where the name Enzo Fernandez comes in.

Real Madrid Are Pushing For Endo Fernandez

According to Fichajes, the club are now working on a deal to sign Enzo Fernández in the upcoming summer transfer window. The 24-year-old Argentine midfielder has had a remarkable campaign with Chelsea, directly involved in 20 goals during the season. His performances have put him on the radar of several giants, but Real Madrid want to get ahead of the pack. The idea is to find the natural heir to Luka Modric. A technical profile, with game reading and aggressiveness to compete with both traits on the pitch.

From a tactical point of view, Enzo would fit without problems in the structure that Xabi Alonso, who sounds strongly to be the next coach of Real Madrid, probably wants to apply. The Bayer Leverkusen boss has shown that he looks for midfielders who not only distribute, but who can sustain pressure, who are press-resistant and who understand the pace of the game.

Enzo does that. He has a sense of the tempo of the game, pauses at the right time, and possesses a clean reading of space. In that formation that usually mixes a double pivot with an interior who is free, the Argentine could even play at various positions depending on the opponent.

Will He Be A Good Fit For Los Blancos?

Moreover, Real Madrid are not looking for a player who can only perform physically or technically. They want character, and Enzo has shown that from his breakthrough with River Plate to his consecration in Qatar. But all this leads to a key question: can they really force Chelsea to sell?

The English club paid a hefty fee, and although they have had inconsistent form, it doesn’t seem logical that they would want to part with their vice-captain. However, if Enzo insists on leaving, and if Madrid offer a convincing figure, the pressure may become unbearable.

There is also another thought. Real Madrid may be using this interest as a way to mark the ground before making a move for other midfielders. In other words, they are not necessarily looking to close the deal quickly, but to gauge how far they can push Chelsea and the player’s entourage. The cultural preference of many South American players for Spain also plays a role, which could facilitate a change of shirt.

Although the operation is not without its obstacles, Enzo Fernández’s technical and emotional fit with Xabi Alonso’s idea makes sense. If Real Madrid decide, they can offer him a competitive, tactical and emotional space that he is unlikely to find in London.
