Chelsea is reportedly making significant progress on deals to offload winger Alejandro Garnacho, who has been excluded from pre-season training to finalize a transfer. The club is valuing the player at €50 million (£43 million), with a permanent move being the only option considered.
Garnacho, who only joined Chelsea from Manchester United last summer, has struggled to make an impact at Stamford Bridge. Despite his talent, issues with consistency have hampered his progress, leading Chelsea to explore swift exit options.
Reputable sources like Nizaar Kinsella of BBC Sport and Fabrizio Romano have indicated that transfer discussions are already underway. Garnacho is not participating in training under manager Xabi Alonso as Chelsea works closely with his representatives to find a suitable destination.
Interest in the 22-year-old Argentine international comes from clubs across the Premier League, Europe, and Saudi Arabia. Chelsea is not entertaining any loan offers, emphasizing a permanent sale this summer. Romano also noted that the valuation differs slightly for Premier League clubs, set at £45 million, compared to €50 million for overseas suitors.
While Garnacho possesses notable skills on the ball and finishing ability, his career trajectory has stalled. The club is looking to recoup a substantial fee for the player, who has yet to consistently replicate his potential on the field.
