Alejandro Garnacho has no future at Chelsea with the club actively working to move him on.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Despite being with the Blues for just one season, Garnacho is set to leave Stamford Bridge following a disastrous debut campaign which included just one Premier League goal.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The 22-year-old was not part of Xabi Alonso’s first training session last week with the new Chelsea manager clearly not interested in working with him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As a result, the Blues moved quickly to sign Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa and made assurances that he’ll be Alonso’s main left-sided winger.<\/p>\n

Alejandro Garnacho rejects chance to stay in Premier League<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Fabrizio Romano (via Manchester Evening News), in addition to Nicolas Jackson, Unai Emery also enquired about Garnacho during Villa’s talk over Rogers.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, despite having the chance to stay in the Premier League despite his form being undeserving of such an opportunity, the Argentine is against the idea. Instead, he would prefer a move to Roma.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Serie A side have expressed an interest in signing Chelsea’s number 49, but their conditions are thought to be only on loan. The Blues would prefer a permanent sale for a fee within the region of \u00a343 million.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For this reason, unless Roma change their stance, the South American’s chances of moving to Italy remain low. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Villa, after doing similar deals for Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho in the past, present a much more realistic opportunity.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Poor mentality<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Garnacho’s unwillingness to move to the UEFA Europa League champions shows a real lack of elite-level mentality.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Manchester United fans will say ‘told you so!’, but the truth is, irrespective of hindsight, Garnacho is the only one to blame for what has been a shocking downward spiral.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The former Red Devils’ academy graduate was once part of the Argentina squad but his prolonged poor form, and attitude, saw Lionel Scaloni excluded him for his final 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The young winger hasn’t performed at Chelsea, but instead of owning his poor performances and believing he can still make it in England’s toughest league, whether that be at Stamford Bridge, or elsewhere, he wants the easy way out; to a league where the demands and expectations are no where near as high.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If the Blues can find a way to get their full asking price for the 22-year-old, they’ll undoubtedly dodge a bullet in the long run.<\/p>\n
