Chelsea have a lot of talent in their squad and new signing Joao Felix was recently asked who he thinks is the most likely to become a manager.
Felix arrived on a permanent deal from Atletico Madrid this summer in a deal worth £44.5m and scored on his debut against Wolves.
The Portugal international has mainly been used from the bench by Enzo Maresca, but it’s going to be a long season and his opportunities will come.
Felix recently attended the launch of EAFC 25 and in an interview with Sky Sports he was asked which member of the squad is most likely to become a manager.
It may surprise some people but he said Enzo Fernandez, even though Marc Cucurella has already started doing his coaching badges despite only being 26 years of age.
Fernandez is certainly a surprise choice, but he appears to have grown into a leadership role at Chelsea and has captained the team this season on a number of occasions.
He wouldn’t be the first name that springs to mind when asked that question, but given his increased responsibilities this season and the fact he’s now part of the leadership group at the club he could possibly be a manager of the future.
