Chelsea Ready To Sell Garnacho After Less Than A Year
Chelsea is prepared to sell Alejandro Garnacho less than a year after his £40 million transfer from Manchester United, with the 22-year-old absent from preseason training under new manager Xabi Alonso. Roma has reportedly expressed interest
Chelsea is prepared to sell Alejandro Garnacho after his transfer from Manchester United less than a year ago. Reports indicate the 22-year-old has yet to report for preseason training under new manager Xabi Alonso despite no reported injuries.
Players excluded from the 2026 World Cup squad have begun reporting to training camp and undergoing fitness tests for preseason preparation under Alonso's direction. Most have arrived, but the 22-year-old striker remains absent with no injury explanation offered.
Sources indicate Chelsea has run out of patience and believes Garnacho is not part of Alonso's team plans, so they are open to offers for the forward they signed from Manchester United for £40 million last summer. The board is inclined to sell outright rather than loan him out. Roma from Italian Serie A is reportedly interested in Garnacho, though negotiations have not yet formally begun.
