Fernandez's Suspension
Fernandez remains suspended for the Manchester City match despite apologising.
“Fernandez will remain unavailable despite apologising for recent comments about Madrid”
Rosenior said it was a serious meeting about something very serious.
The suspension followed Fernandez's comments expressing admiration for Madrid.
Chelsea are sixth in the Premier League, one point behind Liverpool.
Agent and Contract Issues
Pastore branded the sanction as completely unfair.
Fernandez only mentioned Madrid as a city, not as a club.
Contract talks have stalled since December or January.
Real Madrid is looking for a midfielder and Fernandez is one of their targets.
Peace Made, Return Uncertain
Reports emerged that Chelsea and Fernandez had made peace.
“Enzo Fernández and Chelsea make peace after Real Madrid comments”
Rosenior confirmed the suspension would remain in place for the City match.
There are still a few hurdles that need to be overcome.
Injured defenders James, Chalobah and Colwill remain unavailable.
