Argentina and Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández has withdrawn from national team duty, citing a persistent knee problem that has troubled him over the past four months.

According to an X post by Fabrizio Romano on Saturday, Enzo said, “I was just talking to the medical team because I’ve had a problem with my knee for the last four months.

“I will not be available with Argentina.”

The 25-year-old has been a key player in Argentina’s midfield, known for his composure, passing range, and defensive contributions.

His absence comes at a crucial time as the team prepares for upcoming international fixtures and friendly matches.

Fernández’s withdrawal raises questions about Argentina’s midfield options, as coach Lionel Scaloni now looks to adjust his squad and fill the gap left by the talented midfielder.

Enzo played a key role in Chelsea’s 3-0 win against Wolves on Saturday.
