Enzo Fernandez had a determined message for Chelsea supporters as the side gear up for their next European test in the Conference League.
Chelsea are set to travel to Poland to face Legia Warsaw on 10 April in the quarter-finals, with hopes high as the team remains unbeaten in the competition.
Enzo Maresca’s side breezed through the league phase with a perfect record and overcame Copenhagen in the round of 16.
Fernandez has continued to win praise from Chelsea fans this season, establishing himself as a key figure in midfield with his composure, passing range and work rate.
Ahead of the tie, the Argentine gave supporters a glimpse into Chelsea’s preparations, sharing footage from training and sending a clear message of focus and belief as the Blues aim to take another step towards European silverware.

Fernandez and Moises Caicedo have formed a formidable partnership in midfield this season, proving just how vital they are to Chelsea’s setup.
As well as praising Fernandez, Chelsea fans have been particularly impressed by Caicedo’s recent performances, with the duo finally starting to show their value at Stamford Bridge after a slow start.
However, the Argentina international’s growing influence hasn’t gone unnoticed. Former Man United chief scout Mick Brown told Football Insider that Real Madrid are monitoring Fernandez ahead of a potential summer swoop.
Although the 24-year-old remains a key part of Maresca’s project, Chelsea could be “tempted” by a big offer, especially with ongoing concerns around profit and sustainability regulations.
Individually, Fernandez has delivered more this season, scoring six goals and providing nine assists in 2,745 minutes across all competitions, highlighting a marked improvement in his end product.

Maresca faced criticism for decisions such as continuing to back Robert Sanchez, despite a string of high-profile mistakes.
However, if the Italian can lead Chelsea to European success and secure another major European trophy to the the club’s cabinet, he may well win over his doubters—particularly with Fernandez hitting top form at the business end of the campaign.
