Chelsea eyeing Alejandro Garnacho: A Move to Strengthen Their Wings?
Chelsea have reportedly made enquiries about signing Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United, with the 20-year-old winger emerging as a key target for the Blues. According to The Athletic, Chelsea are keen on adding Garnacho to their ranks, as he fits their profile for young talent.
This marks the second time in recent months Chelsea has targeted a Manchester United player, following their interest in Jadon Sancho during the summer. Garnacho has garnered attention due to his potential, but his current situation at Old Trafford remains uncertain. Despite being a standout prospect, Garnacho has not been a regular starter under manager Ruben Amorim, with some reports suggesting that the Argentine may not be seen as a central figure in Amorim’s plans.
Chelsea’s interest comes at a time when Garnacho has been linked with several clubs outside of England, including Italian giants Napoli and Juventus. Manchester United, however, have reportedly rejected a bid from Napoli, showing they still value the young winger. Still, with United in a period of transition, the club may be open to offers that help balance their finances.
Garnacho’s future remains unclear, but if Chelsea decides to make a competitive offer, Manchester United could be persuaded to let the talented winger go, especially if it means strengthening Amorim’s squad.
