=== July 2024 video controversy ===

In July 2024, following Argentina's Copa América triumph, a video showing Fernández and other Argentinian players chanting racist chants about the origin of French national team players on the team bus surfaced, which led to outrage and criticism from the [[French Football Federation]] (FFF) and French sports minister [[Amélie Oudéa-Castéra]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.dw.com/en/france-condemns-argentina-footballers-racist-remarks/a-69684417|title=France condemns Argentina footballers' 'racist remarks'|work=Deutsche Welle|date=16 July 2024|access-date=18 July 2024}}</ref> Several of Fernández's French teammates at Chelsea proceeded to unfollow him on [[Instagram]] and made posts on [[Twitter]] showing their anger,<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.pulsesports.ng/football/story/racism-storm-rocks-chelsea-as-players-unfollow-enzo-fernandez-on-instagram-2024071708135434477|title=Racism storm rocks Chelsea as players UNFOLLOW Enzo Fernández on Instagram|work=Pulse Sports Nigeria|date=17 July 2024|author=Ifeanyi Ufomadu|access-date=18 July 2024}}</ref> which led to Fernández apologising through Instagram.

== Style of play ==
[[File:Argentina vs mexico enzofernandez.jpg|thumb|right|Fernández playing for Argentina at the [[2022 FIFA World Cup]]. Fernández has been noted for his ability to break up play and recycle possession.|253x253px]]
A versatile midfielder, Fernández usually plays as a [[deep-lying playmaker]], responsible for breaking up play, dictating the tempo, and recycling possession, but he is also a capable [[attacking midfielder]]. Although he prefers operating centrally, he can be seen occupying the left half-space assisted by a defensive midfield partner, like his former Benfica team-mate, [[Florentino Luís]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Analytical look at Chelsea's record signing, Enzo Fernández |url=https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2023/2/9/23592318/analytical-look-at-chelseas-record-signing-enzo-fernandez |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209180255/https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2023/2/9/23592318/analytical-look-at-chelseas-record-signing-enzo-fernandez |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |date=9 Feb 2023 |work=We Ain't Got No History |last=Connolly |first=Martin}}</ref>
Fernández plays quick short passes, accurate long passes, and lobbed balls. He is combative in his midfield duels, protects spaces and his backline efficiently, and possesses good passing range and vision. He can dribble into dangerous territory or out of it. He thrives in receiving the ball in tight spaces and is press-resistant. He is adept at breaking defensive lines with his passes, playing through balls, as well as recycling possession in the midfield. Out of possession, Fernández looks to proactively disrupt opposition attack, anticipate and intercept passes.<ref>{{cite news|title=Enzo Fernandez analysis: Benfica's creative prodigy taking Europe by storm |url=https://www.foottheball.com/players-in-focus/enzo-fernandez-stats-profile-river-plate-scout-report-transfer-news-analysis-potential/|date=18 September 2022|access-date=4 Feb 2023 |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209221433/https://www.foottheball.com/players-in-focus/enzo-fernandez-stats-profile-chelsea-scout-report-transfer-news-analysis-potential/ |website=foottheball.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://analyticsfc.co.uk/blog/2022/08/18/scouting-the-primeira-liga-the-next-players-to-make-the-step-up/|title=Scouting the Primeira Liga: The Next Players to Make the Step Up|date=18 August 2022|access-date=19 October 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209222200/https://analyticsfc.co.uk/blog/2022/08/18/scouting-the-primeira-liga-the-next-players-to-make-the-step-up/ |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |website=analyticsfc.co.uk}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://breakingthelines.com/player-analysis/enzo-fernandez-the-future-of-argentina-and-benficas-midfield/|title=Enzo Fernandez – The Future Of Argentina and Benfica's Midfield?|date=11 August 2022|access-date=19 October 2022 |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209222233/https://breakingthelines.com/player-analysis/enzo-fernandez-the-future-of-argentina-and-benficas-midfield/ |website=breakingthelines.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://themastermindsite.com/2022/10/10/analyzing-three-of-europes-most-promising-central-midfielders/|title=Analyzing three of Europe's most promising central midfielders|date=10 October 2022|access-date=19 October 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209222316/https://themastermindsite.com/2022/10/10/analyzing-three-of-europes-most-promising-central-midfielders/ |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |website=themastermindsite.com}}</ref>
== Personal life ==
Fernández is named after three-time [[Copa América]] winner and former River Plate player [[Enzo Francescoli]], due to his father Raúl's fascination with the Uruguayan. In an interview, he said that his favorite player is Lionel Messi.<ref name="CLA1"/>
Fernández is married to fellow Argentine Valentina Cervantes, with whom he has a daughter, born on 4 March 2020. In October 2023 their son, Benjamin, was born.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.clarin.com/deportes/enzo-fernandez-emocion-sorpresa-esposa-hija-orgullosa-lograste-_0_8C22ScCmjX.html|work=[[Clarín (Argentine newspaper)|Clarín]]|title=Enzo Fernández y su emoción ante la sorpresa de su esposa y su hija: "Orgullosa de todo lo que lograste"|date=23 December 2022|access-date=26 December 2022|language=es}}</ref>

Although he prefers operating centrally, he can be seen occupying the left half-space assisted by a defensive midfield partner, like his former Benfica team-mate, [[Florentino Luís]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Analytical look at Chelsea's record signing, Enzo Fernández |url=https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2023/2/9/23592318/analytical-look-at-chelseas-record-signing-enzo-fernandez |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209180255/https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2023/2/9/23592318/analytical-look-at-chelseas-record-signing-enzo-fernandez |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |date=9 Feb 2023 |work=We Ain't Got No History |last=Connolly |first=Martin}}</ref>
Fernández plays quick short passes, accurate long passes, and lobbed balls. He is combative in his midfield duels, protects spaces and his backline efficiently, and possesses good passing range and vision. He can dribble into dangerous territory or out of it. He thrives in receiving the ball in tight spaces and is press-resistant. He is adept at breaking defensive lines with his passes, playing through balls, as well as recycling possession in the midfield. Out of possession, Fernández looks to proactively disrupt opposition attack, anticipate and intercept passes.<ref>{{cite news|title=Enzo Fernandez analysis: Benfica's creative prodigy taking Europe by storm |url=https://www.foottheball.com/players-in-focus/enzo-fernandez-stats-profile-river-plate-scout-report-transfer-news-analysis-potential/|date=18 September 2022|access-date=4 Feb 2023 |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209221433/https://www.foottheball.com/players-in-focus/enzo-fernandez-stats-profile-chelsea-scout-report-transfer-news-analysis-potential/ |website=foottheball.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://analyticsfc.co.uk/blog/2022/08/18/scouting-the-primeira-liga-the-next-players-to-make-the-step-up/|title=Scouting the Primeira Liga: The Next Players to Make the Step Up|date=18 August 2022|access-date=19 October 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209222200/https://analyticsfc.co.uk/blog/2022/08/18/scouting-the-primeira-liga-the-next-players-to-make-the-step-up/ |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |website=analyticsfc.co.uk}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://breakingthelines.com/player-analysis/enzo-fernandez-the-future-of-argentina-and-benficas-midfield/|title=Enzo Fernandez – The Future Of Argentina and Benfica's Midfield?|date=11 August 2022|access-date=19 October 2022 |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209222233/https://breakingthelines.com/player-analysis/enzo-fernandez-the-future-of-argentina-and-benficas-midfield/ |website=breakingthelines.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://themastermindsite.com/2022/10/10/analyzing-three-of-europes-most-promising-central-midfielders/|title=Analyzing three of Europe's most promising central midfielders|date=10 October 2022|access-date=19 October 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20230209222316/https://themastermindsite.com/2022/10/10/analyzing-three-of-europes-most-promising-central-midfielders/ |archive-date=9 Feb 2023 |website=themastermindsite.com}}</ref>
== Personal life ==
Fernández is named after three-time [[Copa América]] winner and former River Plate player [[Enzo Francescoli]], due to his father Raúl's fascination with the Uruguayan. In an interview, he said that his favorite player is Lionel Messi.<ref name="CLA1"/>
