Chelsea He paid 121 million euros to Benfica in January for Enzo Fernandez, making him the club’s most expensive player ever. Still, the Argentina international, world champion, could not be unanimous.

Wesley Sneijder has come out to criticize what he saw of a player line-up at River Plate, where he was still playing last summer. “If they sign you like a €100m player, at least you can expect him to run like a possessed man, right? But no. He walks the field! He loses the ball and he has a mourning moment in the game. See Enzo, €100m buyout, It swings while Gallagher passes in front of him. This cannot happen,” the European champions told Inter Milan, along with Jose Mourinho, in statements to RTL7 television.

The former Dutch midfielder goes above and beyond when it comes to a moment of weakness for Enzo and Chelsea. “You look at a kid like that and I wonder. What can the owner do? Nothing. I’d like to call that kid up for a meeting tomorrow. I don’t think he’s a great player either. Great things have been said about what he’s doing with Lionel Messi in the World Cup. I thought He would do it at Chelsea too, but he’s clearly still a long way from that,” Sneijder confirmed.
