What happened. Man City did not make a bid for Enzo Fernandez by Chelsea's 5pm Friday deadline, so Chelsea now expect him to stay for the 2026/27 season.

• Verbal terms offered to interested clubs at end of May are off the table.
• Fernandez has six years left on his contract.
• Man City could still bid before September 1, but Chelsea insist they won't sell.

Barcelona's pursuit of Rodri could trigger a City move for Fernandez, but Chelsea are firm.
