Fernandez and Caicedo 'want to be remembered' at Chelsea

Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez arrived at Stamford Bridge in the January transfer window after his superb performances for Argentina at the World Cup in Qatar.

He left Benfica to play for Chelsea and, although the team's results have not been the most positive, the 22-year-old is happy with his new life in London. Moises Caicedo, who played for Brighton & Hove Albion, followed in his footsteps and joined the Blues in the summer transfer window.

"I called and told him that he had to accept and come because Chelsea is a great and ambitious club. And I have to thank God for giving me the chance to play alongside him [Caicedo] at Chelsea because we all know the great player he is, but he is also a fantastic person, so I'm thankful he chose Chelsea," Fernandez said in an interview for his current club's press.

Caicedo went on to add: "I mean, the fact that a world champion was phoning you, one of the best midfielders in the world…receiving that call was very nice and he convinced me to come here. Now, I'm enjoying playing alongside him, in training as well, in rondos. We are always together."

"I want to win every possible trophy there is and be part of the generation that will make history with this club because this is a very historic club, but there is a new generation. What we all want is to win many trophies with this club and be remembered forever," he concluded.
