Chelsea’s attempts to sign Alejandro Garnacho took a new twist last night.
The Blues were last week said to be keen on a deal for the Manchester United academy graduate, so much so that they are reportedly seeking reassurances over Garnacho’s temperament.
Napoli are also reportedly interested as they look for a replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who has joined Paris Saint-Germain. The Serie A side, it was been claimed, have seen an opening bid worth around £40million rejected and are now expected to move on to other targets after learning of United’s £60m asking price.
Advantage Chelsea, then? Perhaps. Fabrizio Romano reported on Monday night that Garnacho’s agents were at Stamford Bright to watch the Blues beat Wolves.

Garnacho faces a crucial final few days of the transfer window, with United reportedly willing to cash in on the Argentine star as manager Ruben Amorim looks to refresh his failing squad.
