Isco Alarcón Calls for Doping Test on Enzo Fernandez After Europa Conference League Final – Results Shock Football World
After Chelsea’s 2-1 win over Real Betis in the 2024/25 UEFA Europa Conference League final, Betis captain Isco Alarcón made headlines by requesting that UEFA conduct a doping test on Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez. The match had already drawn attention for controversial refereeing, but Isco’s unexpected demand pushed the drama further.
Sources close to the Betis squad revealed that Isco was suspicious of Fernandez’s high-energy performance, which he described as unusually intense. In a post-match interview, Isco explained, “I’ve faced many top midfielders, but something felt strange tonight. As captain, I felt it was my duty to act in the interest of fair play.”
UEFA acted quickly, administering a doping test to Fernandez shortly after the game. As anticipation grew on social media and sports news outlets, fans and pundits awaited the results.
The outcome? Fernandez tested negative—no substances were found, clearing him of any suspicion. But perhaps even more surprising was Isco’s public reaction afterward.
“I accept the result and sincerely apologize to Enzo Fernandez if my actions cast doubt on his character,” Isco said. “I acted on instinct, and I’m glad the test confirmed the match was clean.”
The incident sparked debate among fans. Some praised Isco for standing up for integrity in the game, while others criticized him for making an unfounded accusation that could damage a player’s reputation. Chelsea fans quickly showed their support for Fernandez, launching the hashtag #StandWithEnzo across social media.
Fernandez has yet to make a public statement, but insiders say he remains focused on celebrating Chelsea’s victory and preparing for next season.
This situation has reignited conversations about how performance concerns in elite football should be addressed—and how accusations should be handled with care.
