The Telegraph share major update on Chelsea’s pursuit of Alejandro Garnacho

Chelsea are expected to make of an offer for Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho before the end of the window according to The Telegraph.

The Blues have been busy this summer and have already made four signings in Jorrel Hato, Liam Delap, Joao Pedro and Jamie Gittens.

Chelsea continue to work on a deal for Xavi Simons, with negotiations thought to be at an advanced stage with RB Leipzig.

Chelsea expected to bid for Alejandro Garnacho

The Blues reportedly want eight or nine attacking options to rotate between in their squad next season as they prepare for their return to Champions League football.

The attack has undergone somewhat of a revamp with three new signings, and Simons would be the fourth, whilst Noni Madueke and Joao Felix have left, with Christopher Nkunku also expected to depart.

If Simons does arrive, that isn’t necessarily the last attacker the Blues will target, and they’ve constantly been linked with Garnacho throughout the summer.

Chelsea reportedly don’t want to pay more than £30m for Garnacho, although United’s valuation is thought to be higher.

Fabrizio Romano has consistently said to keep an eye on Garnacho and Chelsea, and The Telegraph have reported the Blues are expected to make an offer before the end of the window.

The report adds they may have to wait until United sign a striker, whilst Chelsea have no concerns about Garnacho’s character having carried out a series of background checks.

The Argentine scored 11 goals and registered ten assists in 58 appearances in all competitions last season, but has almost certainly played his final game for the Old Trafford outfit.
