Chelsea
paid 121 million euros for
Enzo Fernández
and not only sealed one of the most expensive transfers in history but also boosted the fame of the former River and Benfica on a planetary level.
Enzo came from being a champion and figure in the Argentina National Team that was established in the World Cup in Qatar, but his jump to the Premier from Benfica for such a figure gave him greater visibility and the great responsibility of becoming leader of the English team.
The reality is that Chelsea still couldn't win since Enzo's arrival.
He reaped two league draws and this Wednesday he had to suffer his first defeat, in the Champions League.
It was in the first leg for the round of 16 of the competition, against Borussia Dortmund.
And, without wanting it, the Argentine was the protagonist of the 1-0 defeat of the German team.
Chelsea's 5 was left as the last man in a corner in favor of the English, and the Germans scored the goal on the counter.
It was Enzo who couldn't reach an extraordinary run from
Karim Adeyemi
, who defined the goalkeeper's exit.
"Call an Uber.
Enzo Fernández
is looking for Adeyemi so far,"
they said from the TNT Sports Brasil Instagram account, mentioning the play.
And the one who jumped to defend the Argentine was Thiago Silva, who put the points to his compatriots.
The defender
is a benchmark both on and off the field.
And, with the experience he has on his back, he understood that it was time to publicly ban Enzo
after
the charge from a Brazilian media outlet.
Thiago Silva came out to bench Enzo.
Silva, angry at the publication, came out pointing in the comments:
"Lack of respect. Be more serious with your work @tntsportsbr"
.
In any case, Chelsea can still reverse the 0-1 loss in the first leg, since on March 7 the rematch will be held at Stamford Bridge and there it will be defined who will go to the round of 16 of the Champions League.
