Benfica coach Roger Schmidt concedes Enzo Fernandez may've played his last game for the club.

With Chelsea in talks with Benfica for Fernandez, Schmidt played the Argentine in last night's defeat against Braga.

Schmidt said, "Nico (Otamendi) and Enzo were good today. They were at their normal level. As I said before the game, they came with rhythm, they were always playing. Others were at the World Cup, didn't play, didn't train much. They need some time to get back to top form. Overall we weren't good enough. You can't change.

"I already said that he and Nico did well. I don't know if it was his last game for Benfica. He's an excellent player, he's been performing fantastically, he's identified with the club. Sometimes things happen and players have to make decisions. We'll see what happens in the coming weeks."
