- Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso leads a squad reshaping that includes pursuing Monaco's Lamine Camara as a replacement, after Fernández made 170 appearances and scored 31 goals for the club.
- With the addition of Fernández, City's summer spending reaches around £430m, following previous signings of Elliot Anderson and Ayyoub Bouaddi, as the club continues a major midfield overhaul.
