Revealed: Garnacho's stance on possible Chelsea move after United set price

Alejandro Garnacho has set his mind on a move to Chelsea after Manchester United revealed their asking price.

The Red Devils have been looking to offload Garnacho all summer, with the Argentine international one of the unwanted players placed into a 'bomb squad'.

Garnacho was told by United boss Ruben Amorim to find a new club in May, after the winger was unhappy to start on the bench in the Europa League final.

Chelsea hold strong interest in the 20-year-old, who is believed to be valued at £50million - significantly less than the £70m that United initially wanted.

The Blues' hierarchy have no concerns over his character after doing their homework.

In total Garnacho has played 144 games for United and has scored 26 goals, while he has provided 22 assists.

He won the FA Cup with United in the 2023-24 campaign and the EFL Cup in the previous season.

The Stamford Bridge club are still assessing whether to add another centre back for Enzo Maresca but intend to sell before making more buys.

Nicolas Jackson remains an option for the likes of Newcastle while Christopher Nkunku is wanted by former club RB LEIPZIG as part of negotiations over Xavi Simons.

Nkunku has a number of options but Chelsea would be open to reducing the fee for Simons by including the French forward in any deal. Leipzig are also keen on Chelsea's Tyrique George.
