Enzo Jeremías Fernández (born 17 January 2001) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Premier League club Chelsea and the Argentina national team.

As an academy graduate of River Plate, Fernández made his first-team debut for the club in 2019, before spending two seasons on loan with Defensa y Justicia. There, he enjoyed a successful campaign which culminated in him winning the Copa Sudamericana and Recopa Sudamericana, before returning to River Plate in 2021. Following his return, Fernández established himself as an integral player for the club, and won the 2021 Argentine Primera División. He joined Portuguese Primeira Liga side Benfica in the summer of 2022.

Fernández represented his country at under-18 level, before making his senior international debut in 2022. He was chosen for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, scoring one goal during the competition, and won the tournament's Young Player Award as Argentina captured their third title.

In January 2023, Fernández signed a deal with Chelsea for £105 million, a Premier League record, making it one of the most expensive signings in history.
