Chelsea's heavily-introduced midfield core, Ansel Fernandes, has been underperforming this season, not only failing to find his best position, but there are rumors that the 23-year-old Argentinean international is interested in selling himself. According to The Sun, Barcelona and Inter Milan are both interested in taking him under their wings, although they are aware of the pain of the high price and may consider trying him out on loan first.

Ansel Fernandes has made 13 appearances for Chelsea this season, contributing assists, but his form has fluctuated. In the last three Premier League matches, he was dropped by coach Maliska. Meanwhile, the steady play of 20-year-old star Romy Olavia has put Ansou's position in the team in jeopardy. Coupled with Chelsea's full squad, Ansou's release seems logical.

Barcelona and Inter Milan each have their own pressing reasons for their pursuit of Ansel Fernandes. Barcelona is planning to sell Frankie Dijon, and needs to find a replacement, and Ansel may be a suitable candidate. As for Inter Milan, as a "paradise" for Argentine players, the team now has three Argentine players, including captain Nadalu Martinez, and they are eager to bring in Ansel to strengthen the team.
