Alejandro Garnacho ‘Issues Ultimatum’ to Man Utd Over Chelsea Transfer
Chelsea and Manchester United are finalizing a deal for Alejandro Garnacho as the player insists on joining Chelsea, with reported transfer fee negotiations around £30-50 million underway.
- Alejandro Garnacho, a 21-year-old Argentina international winger, has issued an ultimatum to Manchester United demanding a summer transfer to Chelsea or he will refuse to play the 2025-26 season.
- This demand follows Garnacho's fallout with Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim, who has frozen him out and instructed the club to sell him this summer.
- Garnacho scored 11 goals last season despite a midseason positional switch and benching for the Europa League final, and has been training separately after being omitted from United’s pre-season tour of the USA.
- Manchester United initially set a £70 million asking price before lowering it to £50 million, while Chelsea aims for around £30 million and has proposed swaps including Nicolas Jackson, which United rejected.
- If the transfer does not occur, Garnacho’s refusal to play suggests a possible extended absence, putting pressure on United to finalize a deal as Chelsea pursues the signing alongside other targets like Xavi Simons.
