Chelsea open to selling Garnacho, Rosenior has reservations | OneFootball

Chelsea are open to selling Alejandro Garnacho this summer if they receive offers, according to the Sun.

Manager Liam Rosenior reportedly has reservations about the Argentine, which is why he has only started four games under him.

Garnacho has bagged eight goals and four assists in 38 outings across all competitions. However, he has tallied just one goal and four assists in 21 league appearances.

Despite arriving at Stamford Bridge this summer for £40 million, his time with the club may already be coming to an end.

Garnacho turned heads recently when he removed all Chelsea-linked posts from his TikTok and posted videos of Manchester United edits, saying they wanted him back.

While the social media activity is not thought to have done any major damage, his penchant for moves like this is unlikely to go down well with the Chelsea hierarchy.

Chelsea must resist the temptation to sell Garnacho

Selling Garnacho would be a premature move from Chelsea. Moving him on this quickly feels reactive and irrational, especially given bigger issues in the squad.

Jamie Gittens, another left-sided signing brought in over the summer, has been far more underwhelming.

One goal and five assists in 27 appearances is a poor return, and he has struggled to impose himself in games.

Garnacho’s biggest flaw is his inconsistency in 1v1 situations, but Gittens has hardly fared better.

For a winger expected to stretch defences and beat his man, he has not shown the dribbling sharpness or final-third quality required at this level.

Chelsea need a reliable, high-impact wide player. The squad is crying out for a left-winger who can consistently win duels, create chances, and contribute goals.

Offloading Gittens, alongside Pedro Neto, would make far more sense to fund that kind of upgrade.

Garnacho still offers directness and end product in patches. He is a confident forward when he finds his groove.

In a better-structured attack, he is far more suited to a rotational role than Gittens, who has not shown enough to justify his place.
