We don’t get much of a view of Enzo Fernandez’s personality off the pitch at Chelsea because of his limited English, so it’s interesting to get a view from within the dressing room.

Joao Pedro had a wide ranging interview on Rio Ferdinand’s podcast this week, where he spoke a lot about various teammates, including Enzo.

Enzo “pushes” Chelsea teammates to be the best

“He doesn’t talk, but the way he pushes you, the way he thinks—he thinks he’s the best,” JP explained.

“That’s why I like him. His mentality is, ‘I’m the best,’ it doesn’t matter who he’s playing against, he always thinks he’s the best. So, the confidence he has in himself is very good.”

It certainly seems Enzo is a strong character in the dressing room, and you can usually see that in his play. Losing him would hurt any positive, winning culture we’re trying to create at Stamford Bridge. We’d imagine it would also not help in our efforts to keep the likes of Joao Pedro, too.
