Enzo Fernández is heading to Manchester City from Chelsea, in a transfer that is about to be officially announced. The English press reports that the Argentine midfielder will leave the Blues to join Pep Guardiola's club.

The value of the operation is expected to match the British transfer record, setting a new milestone in English football. The agreement has not yet been officially confirmed by the clubs involved.

Fernández joined Chelsea in January 2023 from Benfica, and since then has been an important figure in the team's midfield. The Argentine international was one of the most expensive signings in Premier League history when he arrived at the Blues.

At Barradão, Vasco tries to repeat 2009 feat against Vitória to reach Copa do Brasil semifinal; relive it

Vasco seeks its third consecutive Copa do Brasil semifinal by facing Vitória this Wednesday at Barradão, in Salvador. After winning the first leg 1-0 at São Januário, the Cruz-Maltino only needs a draw to advance, while a one-goal loss takes the decision to penalties. Vasco's record at Barradão is unfavorable — only six wins in 29 games against Vitória at the Bahian stadium — but the team tries to draw inspiration from the classification achieved at the same stage in 2009, when it managed to hold the opponent away from home. The teams have faced each other four times in the Copa do Brasil, with Vitória advancing in three of them.

Botafogo advanced in the negotiation for Everton Cebolinha, offering two years of contract to the Flamengo winger, after the red-black president Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap) released the player for free on Monday. However, the black-and-white club makes considerations about the high salary and the signing bonus demanded by the 30-year-old athlete, in addition to concerns about his physical condition, since Cebolinha underwent surgery in 2024 and hasn't shown expressive numbers recently. Even so, Botafogo's board evaluates that the reinforcement would be important to raise the team's level, and an agreement is being stitched together, with a decision expected this week.
