@BordeauxBlue vouched for him. That is enough for me.

Dont know enough about him to get excited but at least we aren’t going into the season short of midfielders. Actually thinking about it they’re all short. Hope he’s as good as YouTube says.

The open top bus is already painted and engine running!

Should they really get credit for cleaning up a mess they created? They can have some credit when we win something worth winning. Supporting the team doesn't mean unconditionally supporting the board.

So was Pep; he employed the same positional system everywhere he went. I don't think CM pivot for us equates to pivot in that system. Anyway, I suspect we disagree on this. 😁 There's little point speculating now—we'll see what happens.

Just praying that Trump doesn't intervene and get the failed medical rescinded.

City are still playing Pep like atm. Much like we did when Maresca took over from poch. It’s when Maresca starts getting his ideas across especially with Enzo playing that the wheels will come off. In all honesty I have no idea if they will be a success at city( massive doubts but they do have a great squad) I’m just glad they are both gone from my club. Some fans an annoyed at city and yes they tapped up the snake Maresca but ultimately they have done us a massive favour if you ask me and paid us £142m in the process……I’m over the moon.

Everton medical staff with the assist. I don't know much about him other than him looking world class on twitter comps, but seems well rounded and we really needed a midfielder so I'm very happy to have one in, even though I would have liked a big name replacement for Enzo.

I've never watched him or Monaco play But he sounds like the real deal and we are going to win the league.

Maresca is sh*te. Enzo is sh*te. Neither of them are our issue anymore. Thank you Mr Sheikh for your glorious sports washing ways x

From the Guardian live transfer thingy, “The 22-year-old from Senegal joined Monaco from Metz in 2024 and has quickly established himself as one of Ligue 1’s most dynamic midfielders. Comfortable as a No 6 or No 8, he brings energy, ball-winning and progressive passing, while possessing a fierce shot and a reputation for dangerous set-pieces.” I’m sold!

Such a colossal upgrade in absolutely every department other than ‘Going live on the team bus’ AND we bank a cool 70M as well to boot. God is good.

It'll be a midfield to be reckoned with

Enzo is a one trick pony, he played the same system at leicester as he did Chelsea as he is at City. If they signed Caicedo, he’d play the same role he did last season under Maresca.

That true, but James will be injured or resting half the time, same for Lavia, Henderson I don’t think is intended to actually play, Barco I want to be great but I’m not so sure and Caicedo is starting to worry me about his fitness now. Well, he’s not Enzo Fernandez, which is good, and he’s not a full back being asked to play in centre midfield, which is also good. And £43m is naff all these days. And even if he’s a Bakayoko, we’ll probably sell him for £55m next summer.

He's already done his medical, Enzo never showed that kind of speed.

I remember the excitement and joy from me and others on here when we got the Fernandez deal done very late on deadline day. He let us down, the git

Hmm, now how do you know this bit of info, BB?! ;)

You are making this 1-to-1, and that's the fundamental disagreement I have. If City magically had Caicedo today, where exactly do you think he'd play? When was the last time you saw a Caicedo-type midfielder playing in City's midfield? That's precisely why I'm hesitant to project Enzo's Chelsea role onto City. The whole setup is different.

Am told he is affectionately known in Monaco as the new Bakayoko.... ;)

Some much needed help at DM, don't trust our current crop to stay fit... I think this lady will surprise you he's a real talent

This made me laugh.
