Manchester United<\/a> and Chelsea<\/a> are in talks over a deal for Alejandro Garnacho<\/a>, sources have told ESPN.<\/p>\n

United value the 21-year-old at around \u00a350 million ($67m), although Chelsea believe they can negotiate a significantly lower fee.<\/p>\n

Garnacho has been told to find a new club by United bosses and was axed from the summer tour<\/a> of the United States by head coach Ruben Amorim.<\/p>\n

He has been training away from the first team since the squad returned to Carrington on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Argentina<\/a> winger has made it clear that his preference is to move to Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

United rejected the chance to bid for Nicolas Jackson<\/a> earlier in the summer and have since ended their search for a new striker after reaching an agreement with RB Leipzig<\/a> for Benjamin Sesko<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sesko has arrived in Manchester ahead of a proposed \u20ac85m move from Leipzig.<\/p>\n

After sealing a deal for the 22-year-old Slovenian, United’s priority is securing an exit route for Garnacho. Sources have told ESPN that negotiations with Chelsea could accelerate quickly over the weekend.<\/p>\n

United are also open to offers for Antony<\/a>, Jadon Sancho<\/a>, Tyrell Malacia<\/a> and Rasmus H\u00f8jlund<\/a>.<\/p>\n

H\u00f8jlund is valued at around \u00a340m and is the subject of interest from AC Milan, but the Denmark<\/a> striker has told the club that his preference is to stay and fight for his place at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rob DawsonAug 8, 2025, 05:08 PM EmailPrintOpen Extended Reactions Manchester United and Chelsea are in talks over a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":52846,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-52845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52845\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
