There’s been a lot to celebrate for certain Chelsea players in the last 36 hours.
For instance, Blues central midfielder Enzo Fernandez was part of an Argentina team that beat Colombia 1-0 after extra time to clinch a record 16th Copa America trophy.
The 23-year-old has regained his fitness and form in this summer tournament with his country.
On top of that, Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella was part of the Spain side that beat England 2-1 on Sunday night to win Euro 2024.
Speaking via BBC One after the final, Rio Ferdinand raved about what a great tournament Cucurella has enjoyed.
So, Chelsea will soon welcome back a European champion and a South American champion to their squad.
