Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez was jeered by some supporters after coming on as a substitute during the club’s 3-1 friendly victory over Real Sociedad at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Fernandez entered the game in the 62nd minute, replacing Reece James, with sections of the home crowd making their displeasure known.
The 25-year-old Argentina international previously told Chelsea he wanted to leave the club in May. Chelsea have reportedly placed a £120 million asking price on the midfielder, but no bids have been received during the summer transfer window.
Other supporters, however, backed Fernandez during the match.
Morgan Rogers opened the scoring on his first appearance at Stamford Bridge, tapping in the rebound after Joao Pedro’s header was saved.
Real Sociedad equalised through Jon Aramburu before Brazilian forward Pedro restored Chelsea’s lead.
Pedro completed his brace to secure victory for new manager Xabi Alonso in Chelsea’s final pre-season fixture before their Premier League opener against local rivals Fulham.
The double took Pedro’s pre-season tally to eight goals.
Fernandez, meanwhile, scored Argentina’s equaliser in their World Cup semi-final victory over England in July before being sent off during their defeat to Spain in the final.
