Chelsea are reportedly willing to sell Alejandro Garnacho this summer, just 12 months after signing the winger from Manchester United for £40 million. The Argentine has struggled to make an impact at Stamford Bridge, starting only 14 Premier League games and scoring just once.
The 21-year-old had been keen to revive his career after falling out of favour under former United boss Ruben Amorim, but he failed to secure a regular spot under Chelsea's managers Enzo Maresca, Liam Rosenior and Calum McFarlane. According to the Daily Mail, the club are now open to offers ahead of a new era under Xabi Alonso.
Garnacho is one of several forwards who could leave Chelsea this summer. Liam Delap, signed from Ipswich last year, has also lost the club's backing after a season hampered by injury and limited impact. Nicolas Jackson, returning from a loan spell at Bayern Munich, is considered surplus to requirements following the arrival of Joao Pedro.
Other potential departures include goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen and defender Axel Disasi. Meanwhile, Jamie Gittens, another summer 2024 signing from Borussia Dortmund, will be given more time to prove himself. Chelsea are also expected to finalise the move for Sporting Lisbon's Geovany Quenda, who was signed in March 2025.
The Blues are looking to strengthen the squad after a disappointing tenth-placed finish in the Premier League, losing seven of their final ten games. They went through three different managers last season, with Alonso becoming the fourth permanent boss since 2022.
