Manchester City made a record-breaking move on the final day of the transfer window, signing Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernández from Chelsea for £125 million, about €145 million.

The transfer became the most expensive in Manchester City’s history. According to EFE, it also matched the Premier League’s record fee, equal to Liverpool’s signing of Alexander Isak.

Fernández’s departure had taken shape over the previous weeks after the World Cup winner expressed his desire to change clubs. Chelsea left him out of its final two squads while the London club negotiated his transfer.

After Manchester City officially confirmed the signing, Fernández spoke to the club’s official website about his new team. “Manchester City is a club built for success,” he said, highlighting the club’s current standing.
