The Argentine previously failed to dismiss the speculation after saying he ‘didn’t know’ where his future lay, after being asked if he would still be a Chelsea player during an interview with ESPN earlier this season.

“I don’t know. Right now I’m focused on here, then there’s the World Cup, and we’ll see,” he said at the time.

Fernandez has now added further fuel to the fire by opening up on his fondness for Spain. Speaking in a YouTube interview, the midfielder compared Madrid to Buenos Aires and said he’d like to experience living in the city.

“I’d like to live in Spain, I really like Madrid; it reminds me of Buenos Aires,” he said, having been asked where aside from London he’d like to experience.

“Players live where they want. I’d live in Madrid. I get by in English, but I’d be more comfortable in Spanish.”
