The decision was made because of statements the Argentine gave during the March international break.

Rumors indicate that Real Madrid are interested in signing Enzo, who was asked by ESPN Argentina whether he would stay 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 if he would live in the city, he replied: "Yes, definitely."
