Chelsea skipper returns with an FA Cup bang against Leeds 💪 It's been a tumultuous period for Chelsea's all-action midfielder Enzo Fernández. The Blues skipper was given a two-match internal ban by former boss Liam Rosenior for hinting over a potential transfer from Chelsea. As a result, the Argentine was left out of the Blues' emphatic 7-0 win over Port Vale in the FA Cup quarter-final.

However, Fernández announced his return to the competition in style with an early opener against Leeds at Wembley. The midfielder rose highest inside the area to head home from Pedro Neto's cross mid-way through the first-half. A timely return for Fernández, who now has 13 goals in all competitions, and has scored both of the Blues' goals under Calum McFarlane this season.
