“Enzo Fernandez’s First-Ever English Interview for Chelsea Takes the Internet by Storm”
“Enzo Fernandez Speaks English for the First Time in Chelsea Interview, and It Instantly Goes Viral”
Argentinian midfielder Enzo Fernandez made headlines both on and off the pitch during Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.
The 23-year-old scored Chelsea’s second goal with a header in the 75th minute, doubling their lead and securing a commanding position against Steve Cooper’s side. Although Jordan Ayew netted a stoppage-time penalty, it was a relatively comfortable outing for Enzo Maresca’s team.
Fernandez, who captained Chelsea for the match, also delivered a standout performance, earning the Player of the Match award. His impressive stats included a goal, an assist for Nicolas Jackson’s opener, three chances created, seven duels won, and five ball recoveries.
After the game, Fernandez gave his first-ever interview in English, which quickly captured fans’ attention. Speaking to TNT Sports, he said: “I am very happy – for the team and for the win, most importantly.” He also praised his teammate, saying: “I am very happy for Nico [Jackson], good goal Nico. [We need to] keep going, keep working, keep pushing.”

Jackson then presented Fernandez with the Player of the Match trophy in a heartfelt moment that delighted supporters.
Chelsea’s victory propelled them to third in the Premier League standings, just one point behind Manchester City and six points behind leaders Liverpool, who both play on Sunday.
Manager Enzo Maresca commended Fernandez’s performance, highlighting his ability to adapt and contribute offensively. “Enzo did very well today,” Maresca said. “He’s been performing at a high level since the start. The key today was him getting into the box – that’s how he scored. We’re very happy with his progress.”
Chelsea now turn their attention to a Europa Conference League clash against Heidenheim on November 28, followed by a Premier League showdown with Aston Villa on December 1 at Stamford Bridge.
