Finally Manchester United FLOP player Alejandro Garnacho has joined Chelsea on a £50 million deal All Agreed
Alejandro Garnacho’s future looks set to take a stunning twist, with reports claiming the 20-year-old Manchester United winger is closing in on a £50 million switch to Chelsea. After a rocky spell at Old Trafford that saw both his attitude and performances questioned, the Argentine appears ready for a fresh chapter away from the red side of Manchester.
Once hailed as one of United’s brightest youth prospects, Garnacho’s rise has been overshadowed by controversy. His frustration boiled over after being left out of the Europa League final, when he openly branded United’s season “s**t” and distanced himself from staff and teammates during the club’s Asian pre-season tour. With manager Ruben Amorim making it clear he was no longer part of the long-term plans, Garnacho was told to seek a move elsewhere.
United initially valued him at £70 million, hoping to maximize his market appeal. However, with interest from abroad cooling and Chelsea stepping up as frontrunners, the price tag has reportedly dropped to around £50 million—a figure the Blues are believed to be willing to meet. Garnacho’s agent has insisted his client wants to remain in the Premier League, and Stamford Bridge has quickly become the most likely destination.
Although no official announcement has been made, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that United are open to selling and that Garnacho’s preference is to stay in England. The player himself has kept silent on the situation, choosing a quiet holiday in Rome with his family rather than addressing speculation.
For Chelsea, Garnacho represents both opportunity and risk. His electric pace, direct style, and fearlessness on the wing make him a potential game-changer, yet concerns about his discipline and consistency linger. Still, the club sees him as the kind of attacking spark they need to rejuvenate their front line.
The numbers now appear aligned: United’s softened stance, Chelsea’s determination, and the player’s desire for a Premier League stay all point toward a Stamford Bridge move. While fans must wait for the official confirmation, the signs suggest this could be the week Garnacho begins his path to redemption in blue.
