Chelsea will almost certainly be one of the biggest clubs in the transfer market next summer, as they have been in recent years. But on this occasion, they could be set to lose one of two key players to Real Madrid.It’s no secret that Real Madrid are looking at Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konate, but he is not the only Premier League player that could end up at the Santiago Bernabeu in 2026 – as there are a couple of Chelsea stars that have chances to also make the move.Real Madrid interested in Moises Caicedo and Enzo FernandezMoises Caicedo in action for Chelsea last season.

They are constantly doing work on potential targets. Under Juni Calafat they have transformed their recruitment and their ability to make the right moves.“The midfield department is something they are looking at. They are not worried but are concerned about their depth, and I am told that Fernandez and Caicedo are two players they love and are watching them regularly.”More Stories / Latest NewsChelsea braced for Real Madrid offer as two players confirmed as targetsSep 28 2025, 11:48‘Perfect man for the job’ – Joe Cole names the ideal manager of Man UnitedSep 28 2025, 11:33Darren Bent claims Aston Villa star isn’t interested to play for Unai EmerySep 28 2025, 9:39It’s no secret that Real Madrid are keen on Fernandez, having followed him prior to his Chelsea move in 2023. However, it is Caicedo that would arguably be a better fit for what the La Liga giants need, which is a replacement for Toni Kroos – who retired from football last summer.It remains to be seen whether a move is made by Real Madrid during next summer’s transfer window, but if it were, it may be tough for Chelsea to keep hold of Caicedo or Fernandez.
