I spoke with Enzo an hour ago. As a football club, and with my involvement in the decision, he will not be available for tomorrow’s game or for the match against Manchester City next Sunday. We crossed a line in terms of our culture and what we want to build

The decision was made because of comments made by the Argentine during the March international break.

Rumors suggest that Real Madrid are interested in signing Enzo, who was asked by ESPN Argentina whether he would remain at the club next season and replied by saying, "I don't know."

"My focus is here right now. Then comes the World Cup, and after that we’ll see," added the player, who is under contract with Chelsea until 2032.

In another interview during the international break, with Argentine influencer Marcos Giles, he spoke about the possibility of moving to Madrid.

"I really like Madrid, it reminds me of Buenos Aires," he said. Then, when asked whether he would live in the city, he replied: "Yes, definitely."
