Chelsea completed a dramatic deal for Enzo Fernandez on transfer deadline day.

The Blues have been chasing the Argentine's signature for virtually the whole of January.

It didn't look like a move would materialise as Benfica rebuffed Chelsea's advances time-and-time again.

But Chelsea were determined to get their man and they managed to do just that.

The 22-year-old completed a move worth in excess of £105m in the final moments of the transfer window.

He has overtaken Jack Grealish to become the most expensive player in Premier League history.
