From Old Trafford To Stamford Bridge? Garnacho Edges Closer to Chelsea
Chelsea are on the verge of making one of the summer’s most spectacular transfers after apparently agreeing to personal terms with Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho.
The 20-year-old Argentine, who is widely considered one of United’s most promising young players, is thought to have agreed to a move to Stamford Bridge, although the two clubs have yet to agree on a fee.
Garnacho had a breakout season at Old Trafford, scoring vital goals and providing assists in both the Premier League and the FA Cup, as well as confirming his spot in the Argentina national team.
His scorching pace on the run, flair, and ability to affect crucial games have made him one of the most sought-after young players in all of Europe and beyond.
‘‘Understand Alejandro Garnacho has agreed to every detail of personal terms with Chelsea!
‘‘Deal done on the player side; he only wants Chelsea, as revealed here since July.
‘‘Talks with Man United about the fee will follow soon.
‘‘#CFC pursue both Garnacho and Xavi Simons, as revealed.’’ Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano wrote on his official X page (formerly Twitter).
Although personal terms have been agreed upon, it is anticipated that Chelsea and Manchester United will have contentious negotiations, as United are unwilling to part with a player they consider essential to their long-term goals. If the transfer goes through, it would be a huge win for Chelsea and a surprise to their Premier League opponents.
