Real Madrid is reportedly preparing a surprise attempt to make a swap deal to sign Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez.
In 2023, the World Cup winner signed for the Blues in a deal worth £106 million from Benfica.
However, despite consistently performing well in his 87 games for Chelsea, he has so far failed to live up to his enormous price tag.
On the other hand, Aurelien Tchouameni is reportedly dissatisfied with his current status in the Spanish city and has struggled for playing time under Carlo Ancelotti this season.
