Alejandro Garnacho's proposed move to Chelsea is getting close, football.london understands, after the Manchester United forward made it clear he wants to join the Blues.
Garnacho, 21, has become available for transfer this summer after falling out of favour under United head coach Ruben Amorim. The Argentina international was furious following Amorim's decision to leave him out of the starting line-up to face Tottenham in the Europa League final in May, making his stance clear with comments made straight after the match.
He has since informed United of his desire to explore different opportunities this summer, while Amorim reportedly told the player in front of the rest of the team that he was free to seek a move elsewhere. Chelsea have held a long-term interest in Garnacho and the Blues are moving closer to getting their man.
It's understood that, despite an approach from Bayern Munich, Garnacho only has eyes for Chelsea and the player is waiting for an agreement between the Blues and United.
Talks are advancing and Garnacho is close to getting the move he has been waiting for. The fee involved, at this stage, is unclear, though Chelsea are reluctant to go above the £30million mark.
Garnacho scored 11 goals and added 10 assists in 58 matches for United last season and was one of their best players in Europe. Speaking about his future, following a lack of game-time in the Europa League final, Garnacho said: "Up until the final I played every round helping the team, and today I play 20 minutes, I don't know.
"The final will influence [my decision] but the whole season, the situation of the club. I'm going to try to enjoy the summer and then see what happens afterwards."
Meanwhile, United head coach Amorim provided an update on Garnacho's future during the club's pre-season tour in the United States earlier this month. "I think Garnacho, you can understand and you can see, he's talented, he's a really talented boy," Amorim said. "And sometimes things don't work out.
