Man Utd want Alejandro Garnacho gone! Red Devils monitoring Chelsea transfer activity as they look for buyer for outcast winger

Garnacho’s long-term future remains up in the air. While no formal approach has been made from Chelsea in recent weeks, United officials are keen to establish whether they should prepare for a potential departure later in the summer.

Garnacho is reportedly beginning to assess offers and interest from abroad. However, sources close to the player claim his preferred option is to remain in the Premier League, with Chelsea viewed as a particularly appealing destination.

Chelsea have already secured the services of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro for a combined outlay believed to be in the region of £85 million ($116m). In addition, the west Londoners previously wrapped up pre-transfers for Sporting CP talents Dario Essugo and Geovany Quenda, who cost a further £62m ($85m).

Despite this flurry of spending, Chelsea are also anticipated to offload a number of squad players in the coming weeks. These expected outgoings would potentially create the financial and roster space to make new additions.

For United, time is of the essence. The club wants a final decision from Chelsea regarding Garnacho as soon as possible to avoid prolonged uncertainty. Should their rivals opt out of the race, United are likely to shut down talks and focus on retaining the player as part of their long-term project.
