These rumours were intensified by comments attributed to former Argentina international Javier Pastore, who implied Fernandez might be open to exploring options away from Stamford Bridge.

However, Chelsea holds a strong negotiating position. The club signed the World Cup winner from Benfica for a then-British record fee, and he is tied to a long-term contract that runs until June 2032.

"Any team is fine for me. Whatever the team, I'll be fine," she added, later clarifying that for her, "all teams are the same."
