It would mark a stunning end to an impressive January transfer window in which they have already signed Mykhailo Modric, Joao Felix on loan, Benoit Badiachel and Noni Madueki, as well as a host of promising youngsters.
Igbali and Winstanley traveled to Turkey to personally seal Modric’s £88m deal with Shakhtar Donetsk, and sources believe Chelsea officials are ready to do the same if necessary by traveling to Portugal in hopes of making a comeback with Fernandes.
Fernandez’s Chelsea transfer was backed by manager Graham Potter, who was deeply impressed by the Argentina international’s performance at the Qatar World Cup.
Fernandes is known to want to move to Chelsea this month, so convincing the player and agreeing to personal terms so late in the transfer window won’t be a problem.
He attacked Benfica coach Roger Schmidt at Chelsea after his first offer with Fernandez, accusing the London club of upsetting the player and changing the goalposts because of his offer.
But tensions between the clubs are said to have eased and Fernandes has since returned to the Benfica side, and is said to be waiting patiently to see whether or not Chelsea succeed in signing him.
