“Fantastic club, but I only want to go to Chelsea” – Player dedicated to only joining The Blues

There is a player that is dedicated on only joining Chelsea right now and will go nowhere else, not even Bayern Munich.

Oddly, Fabrizio Romano has been all over Alejandro Garnacho to Chelsea all summer, almost as if he’s been pushing it to happen! I’m joking of course, but he has been putting regular updates out on it almost on a daily basis, and he had another one out yesterday.

Sources: Chelsea now expecting permanent offers in for Christopher Nkunku!

Xavi Simons is another attacker Chelsea are looking to try and sign before the window closes alongside Garnacho.

The Simons stuff has become pretty frustrating really, but there is still an expectation that Chelsea will be signing him this window.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has also put out more info on it last night when he told DAZN that he gives Simons to Chelsea an 85% chance of still happening this window, which is very positive I guess.

But yesterday it was reported that Chelsea are confident of signing both players this window still.

Garnacho only wants Chelsea

Fabrizio Romano spoke on his YouTube channel last night and said:

“Bayern called Garnacho’s camp to understand the situation, and the answer was, ‘Thanks, fantastic club, but I only want to go to Chelsea.’ As I’ve been telling you, as of today he won’t go to any other club.”

Why does he only want Chelsea?

It’s great of course, that some players seem to really want to come to Chelsea. But why does Garnacho only want to join the club? I just find that really odd. What if Chelsea cannot sign him because they cannot agree a fee? Then what? He’s turning other clubs down and gambling on waiting for Chelsea?

I find it very odd. But as I say, it’s great that he desperately only wants to join Chelsea!
