Chelsea not painting themselves well in Enzo debacle – Talk Chelsea

Chelsea have been publicly shamed right now by Benfica and lots of media retailers reporting on the Enzo Fernandez deal, and to be sincere, if reviews are to be believed, you may perceive why.

It seems like Chelsea initially agreed a verbal payment with Benfica, after which went again on that payment and provided much less. It’s laborious to know precisely what has been occurring with this one, with so many contrasting reviews flying round. So a pinch of salt IS additionally wanted right here, nevertheless it definitely doesn’t look nice on our aspect.

This has led to offended responses in public from the Benfica supervisor, saying Chelsea have disrespected them in negotiations. He has some extent, IF that is all true.

Benfica coach Schmidt: “We do not need to promote Enzo. There is a membership that desires him, tempted him however they know the one means is €120m clause” 🚨🚨🇦🇷 #CFC

I don’t know why we don’t simply pay the complete clause if we’re ready to pay 80m euros. It’s solely an additional 30 odd million euros, which on this enterprise is simply pennies. To get this far in negotiations and never conclude it, appears daft and a waste of time to me. And it’s simply be tarnishing the title of Chelsea.

There’s at all times two sides to a narrative and I’m positive Chelsea would have a distinct aspect. However I doubt we are going to ever hear that aspect.

It’s not a really perfect take a look at all, particularly breaking down relations with Benfica, a membership that Chelsea have loved good relations with previously and have signed some prime gamers from. It’s all reasonably regarding in case you ask me.
