Man Utd make final decision on Alejandro Garnacho swap transfer with four stars offered

Alejandro Garnacho is looking for a way out of Manchester United and has made it clear to the club that he wants to join Chelsea and will not entertain any other transfers

Alejandro Garnacho has told Manchester United he only wants to join Chelsea with the Argentine agreeing to terms over a deal at Stamford Bridge until 2032.

The winger has fallen out of favour at Old Trafford and has been tipped to leave all summer. The Blues’ interest dates back to January when they considered a move and Garnacho has no intention of taking up any other offer.

He sees west London as the best place to reignite his career having previously been seen as a future star on the red side of Manchester. GiveMeSport reports that a reunion with Erik ten Hag at Bayer Leverkusen and a lucrative switch to Saudi Arabia were also options put to him.

Napoli even reignited their interest but Garnacho has no plans to join anyone but Chelsea. The 21-year-old is so determined to secure a move to the Blues that he will shun every other avenue and spend a year on the sidelines in Manchester if that’s what it takes.

Chelsea hope to seal a deal for around £30million, but that is about £20m shy of what United were hoping to recoup for their player. The Blues had put forward several swap proposals, including Nicolas Jackson, but there is no interest.

Christopher Nkunku is another player who Chelsea have offered to the Red Devils. Axel Disasi and Renato Veiga were also put on the table but United have made it clear that they want cash to re-invest into their squad – not players.

Last term Garnacho scored 11 times – the best total of his career – but had to deal with a midseason positional switch which saw Ruben Amorim try and utilise him as a wing-back. Come the end of the season and the Argentine found himself on the bench for the Europa League final – reacting angrily on social media.

He is one of a number of big names – Jadon Sancho and Antony among them – who have yet to secure moves away from Manchester with time running out. Amorim has admitted that any players who are not sold will be bought back into the fold.

The Portuguese boss said: “I understand the clubs are waiting for the last minute but they can have a surprise. I’m ready to receive the players, they have more competition, more competition if you want to play in the World Cup next year, so you need to play.”
