"I have got no bad words to say about him but a line was crossed in terms of our culture and what we want to build. The door is not closed on Enzo. It's a sanction. You have to protect the culture, and in terms of that, a line was crossed."
"Fernandez has been a key player for Chelsea in the last few years, but it seems clear that Rosenior had to take action. He didn't understand why previous manager Enzo Maresca was sacked."
"Obviously, it was a departure that hurt us a lot because we had an identity. He gave us an order, even though, as is the way of football, sometimes it's good and bad."
"Fernandez's ban by Rosenior now will surely only fuel speculation about a summer exit even further."

Fernandez expressed confusion over management choices and acknowledged the impact of Maresca's departure on team identity. His situation has sparked speculation about a potential transfer to Real Madrid.
