Chelsea made further contact with Manchester United over the weekend regarding Alejandro Garnacho according to The Guardian.

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

However, Chelsea aren’t done there, with the Blues still looking to close deals for Garnacho and Xavi Simons before the end of the window.

Fabrizio Romano has stated Garnacho will become a Chelsea player, but there’s still a gap in valuation between the Blues and United.

Manchester United are said to want £50m for the Argentine, whilst Chelsea are thought to value the winger at around £30m.

The Guardian have reported a gap in valuation remains between the clubs, but they state the Blues in fact value Garnacho at £35m.

The report adds Chelsea would be prepared to go to £40m including add-ons in an attempt to get a deal done.

Garnacho has turned down approaches from Bayern Munich and the Saudi Pro League, and has made it very clear he only wants to join Chelsea.

Chelsea still negotiating for Xavi Simons

Garnacho isn’t the only attacker Chelsea are looking to bring in before the end of the window, and they are still working on a deal for Simons.

Simons had made it clear he wants to join Chelsea, but the Blues are yet to make an offer for the 22-year-old, with Leipzig thought to want a total package of £60m.
