Chelsea, Garnacho close: Napoli held talks in January, now set for London | OneFootball

Alejandro Garnacho could be one of the most important transfer moves in these final days of the market. The Argentine winger, born in 2004, is getting closer and closer to Chelsea, who are intensifying contacts with Manchester United to bring him to Stamford Bridge. According to Sky Sports UK, the negotiations are entering decisive hours and there is optimism about the possibility of closing the deal before the end of the transfer window next Monday.

Chelsea, Garnacho heading to London: in January he was close to Napoli

Garnacho, coming off a complicated season in which he did not secure a regular spot among the Red Devils’ starters, has already made it clear that he wants to move to the Premier League to relaunch his career. In fact, the winger was already informed at the end of last season about the possibility of leaving the club, and he is no longer part of the first team’s plans. The main sticking point remains financial. United have set a valuation of around 50 million pounds, a figure considered high by the Blues, who are looking for solutions to lower the price or arrange a deferred payment with bonuses. Despite the difficulties, the signals coming from those involved suggest that a mutual agreement could be reached in the coming hours.

It is interesting to note that Garnacho had already caught Napoli’s eye during the winter transfer window, but the deal did not materialize, mainly due to the high figures demanded by Manchester United. Now, however, the winger seems destined for London, where he will be able to regain consistency and further develop his talent under the guidance of Enzo Maresca.
