Chelsea maintain pursuit of Garnacho in summer overhaul

Chelsea’s attacking revamp shows no signs of slowing.

With Jamie Gittens, Joao Pedro, and Liam Delap already through the door, Enzo Maresca is still shaping his forward line amid uncertainty over Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson. Mykhailo Mudryk’s suspension has opened further space, and the hunt for quality reinforcements continues.

According to TBR Football, Chelsea are keeping a firm eye on Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho. The Argentine has requested to leave Old Trafford and carries a £40 million valuation. Last season, he delivered 11 goals and 10 assists, emerging as one of United’s most decisive attackers.

Maresca may have Pedro Neto settled on one flank, with Gittens likely holding the other, but Garnacho’s arrival would inject competition and depth—especially with Joao Felix tipped for an exit.

Competing in the Champions League, two domestic cups, and the Premier League will demand a bench that can change games.

The 20-year-old’s tireless pressing, comfort on either wing, and ability to slot into a central attacking role make him a valuable asset for any squad aiming to contend on multiple fronts.

At Chelsea, he would likely feature regularly as an impact player while earning occasional starts, giving Maresca a potent weapon against tiring defences.

For Garnacho, Stamford Bridge offers what he seeks—a stage for silverware. Chelsea’s recent Conference League and Club World Cup triumphs have raised expectations, and the club’s aggressive moves this summer signal a clear intent to challenge on all fronts.

If ambition is the magnet, West London might just be the pull strong enough to prize him away from Manchester.
