The winger could leave Chelsea after just one season. Several clubs are showing interest, while Manchester United are also watching closely because they could benefit if a deal is completed.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-chelsea-ready-to-listen-to-offers-for-alejandro-garnacho\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chelsea ready to listen to offers for Alejandro Garnacho<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alejandro Garnacho\u2019s future looks far from certain. After joining <strong>Chelsea<\/strong> from Manchester United last summer, the Argentine has struggled to become a regular starter. His first season brought flashes of quality, but not enough to secure a key place in the team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>As reported by Sky Sports,<\/strong> Chelsea are now ready to sell the 22-year-old if the right offer arrives. The report says the London side prefer a permanent transfer instead of another loan move. The club believes selling him now would help reshape the squad under the new coaching staff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>As reported by the Manchester Evening News,<\/strong> Manchester United are keeping a close eye on the situation because they included a sell-on clause when Garnacho moved to Stamford Bridge. That means the Red Devils could receive a share of any profit Chelsea make from his next transfer. Interest has reportedly arrived from clubs in England, Italy and Saudi Arabia. However, no agreement has been reached yet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alejandro Garnacho\u2019s stats this season, <strong>as per FOTMOB:<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Competitions<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Matches<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Goals<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Assists<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Premier League<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">24<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>FA Cup<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">6<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>EFL Cup<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Champions League<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">9<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-man-united-could-benefit-financially\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Man United could benefit financially<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Manchester United may not be directly involved in the transfer, but the outcome still matters. <strong>As reported by the Manchester Evening News,<\/strong> the sell-on clause could bring extra money into Old Trafford if Chelsea complete a profitable sale. That money could support the club\u2019s summer transfer plans. United have already been active in the market and are still looking at more additions before the new season begins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>As reported by the Daily Mirror,<\/strong> another possible source of income is Mason Greenwood. The forward has also attracted transfer interest, meaning United could receive another financial boost through a separate sell-on agreement. Those two situations together could improve the club\u2019s transfer budget without selling another player. For now, the focus remains on Garnacho. His next move could have an effect on two <strong>Premier League<\/strong> clubs at the same time.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" alt=\"Chelsea\" class=\"wp-image-197341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43.webp 1200w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43-768x432.webp 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43.webp\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43.webp\" alt=\"Chelsea\" class=\"wp-image-197341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43.webp 1200w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Chelsea-43-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-decision-on-alejandro-garnacho-expected-soon\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Decision on Alejandro Garnacho expected soon<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea want clarity before the new campaign begins. <strong>As reported by Sky Sports<\/strong>the club would like Garnacho\u2019s future settled during this transfer window so both sides can move forward. Reports suggest interested clubs are continuing discussions, although no formal agreement has been announced.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Argentine also wants regular <strong>football<\/strong> after a difficult first year. A fresh start could help him rediscover the form that once made him one of the brightest young attackers in England. Manchester United will simply watch events unfold. If Chelsea complete a sale above the agreed terms, <strong>the Red Devils<\/strong> stand to receive extra income through the sell-on clause. That could prove useful as they continue strengthening their squad ahead of the new campaign. For now, Garnacho\u2019s future remains open, but all signs suggest the next few weeks could finally bring a decision.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-author-s-opinion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Author\u2019s Opinion<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Garnacho remains a talented young player despite a difficult season. A fresh start may suit both him and Chelsea. If a transfer happens, Manchester United quietly benefiting through the sell-on clause would make it an interesting deal for everyone involved.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>READ MORE:<\/strong> <strong>Mason Mount set for shock Man Utd midfield role.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ALSO READ:<\/strong> <strong>Ibrahim Mbaye: Manchester United join race for PSG star.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT:<\/strong> <strong>Maxence Lacroix deal awaits Crystal Palace move.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"after-article-links\" style=\"margin-top:20px; font-size:14px;\">Follow the latest updates from <strong>Premier League<\/strong>, <strong>The League<\/strong> and<br \/>\n        <strong>Champions League<\/strong>or explore more<br \/>\n        <strong>Football<\/strong> stories, <strong>Football Teams<\/strong> &#038; <strong>All Football Competitions<\/strong> .
