Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez will not be part of the squad for the crucial clash against Manchester City, despite issuing an apology to the club and coaching staff. The decision was confirmed by manager Liam Rosenior, who addressed the situation in a recent statement.<\/p>\n
Rosenior made it clear that Fern\u00e1ndez remains out of contention for Sunday\u2019s game, indicating that internal matters are still being resolved. \u201cEnzo will not play on Sunday. Hopefully after that, he will be a massive part. There is a few hurdles we need to overcome,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The Argentine midfielder had earlier apologised following an undisclosed issue, holding talks with both the manager and the club. Rosenior acknowledged the positive nature of their discussion but stressed that more steps are required before Fern\u00e1ndez can return to action.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had a really good conversation. He\u2019s apologised to me as same to the club. We will see next week,\u201d Rosenior added, leaving the door open for a possible return in the coming fixtures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
