According to Give Me Sport, Manchester United are eager to sell Alejandro Garnacho this summer and want to gauge the interest from elsewhere. The Red Devils have enlisted intermediaries to find out if Chelsea are among those still keen, as Stamford Bridge could be a potential option for the wantaway attacker.
Alejandro Garnacho is one of the big-name players available for a move this summer. Manchester United are open to offloading the wantaway attacker following the fallout between the player and manager Ruben Amorim. As things stand, there is no way back for the Argentine international, as the club are gauging the market for a viable buyer.
Manchester United have courted approaches for Garnacho, however, it must be the player’s demands that may have shut the door on a few suitors. For instance, widespread reports have suggested that the Madrid-born winger wants to stay in the Premier League, and not move abroad either to Italy or Saudi Arabia.
Chelsea were seen as a viable suitor following their heavy interest since January. The Blues and Manchester United have pondered an exchange deal involving Alejandro Garnacho and Christopher Nkunku given the Red Devils were linked to the Frenchman back in the winter window.
Chelsea have made headlines with the deals for Jamie Gittens and Joao Pedro lately, but they are still in the market for an attacker. Recent links to Mohammed Kudus imply the Blues are still keen on adding to their attacking setup, as Manchester United are hoping that the Blues are still interested in Garnacho.
Manchester United have enlisted intermediaries to find out whether Chelsea are still in the mix for Garnacho. The Blues were expected to decide on the Argentine’s pursuit, and the people involved in the deal are now tasked with understanding if their interest remains.
The Red Devils may have demanded a top price for the player, who contributed to 21 goals last season, and will stay hopeful that Chelsea come in with an offer. Whether the Blues are willing to pay the right price remains the question given Manchester United have shown their hands by enlisting the player on their list of potential sales.
