FOOTBALL fans have set up a petition for Chelsea to be investigated if they seal a sensational £115m deadline day deal Enzo Fernandez transfer.
The Blues are hoping to complete a British-record deal for the Benfica midfielder, which would take their January spending beyond £300m.
To put that into context, Newcastle are next on the list with £50m following the arrivals of Anthony Gordon and Harrison Ashby.
Securing Fernandez’s services would take their spending during his reign to more than HALF A BILLION in the space of two windows.
And many supporters want something done about the situation, which has led to them setting up a petition.
More than 1,000 people have already signed the written request with another 500 making it more likely to get picked up.
