Enzo Fernandez has cast doubt over his future at Chelsea following their humiliating Champions Leagueelimination by Paris Saint-Germain.

Chelsea were comprehensively beaten 3-0 at Stamford Bridge, completing an 8-2 aggregate defeat that underlined the gap between the two sides over both legs.

Midfielder keeps options open amid uncertainty

Speaking after the match, Fernandez admitted he is unsure whether he will remain at the club beyond the current campaign.

โ€œI donโ€™t know, there are eight games left and the FA Cup. Thereโ€™s the World Cup and then weโ€™ll see,โ€ the 25-year-old said.

The Argentine, who arrived in 2023 for a British-record fee, has been a regular presence in the squad, making over 150 appearances and contributing significantly this season with goals and assists.

PSG superiority acknowledged

Reflecting on the defeat, Fernandez conceded that Chelsea were second best across the tie, pointing to lapses in concentration at key moments.

He highlighted the teamโ€™s inability to manage critical phases of both legs, including conceding late goals in the first encounter and an early setback in the return fixture.

โ€œAt this level, small details make the difference. Over the two legs, PSG were the better side and deserved to go through,โ€ he said.

Focus shifts to domestic objectives

Despite the setback, Fernandez emphasised the need for a quick reset, with Chelsea now prioritising domestic competitions.

The clubโ€™s immediate targets include securing qualification for next seasonโ€™s Champions League and mounting a serious push to win the FA Cup.
