Former River Plate midfielder, Enzo Fernández, (author of memorable goal against Mexico in the Qatar world Cup) is now also ex-Benfica as from January 31st, after being sold to Chelasea for 121 million euros at the close of the transfer window. His contract runs until 2031. River, who sold him to Portugal for a mere 10 million euros, might seem the big loser here, but will be netting 32.5 million euros from retaining 25 percent of his transfer. Enzo Fernández now overtkes Gonzalo Higuaín (transferred from Napoli to Juventus in 2016 for 90 million euros) as the costliest Argentine football player in history.
