In a move set to stun the football world, Chelsea have struck a full agreement with Manchester United to sign Argentine starlet Alejandro Garnacho as their new right winger. The deal, valued at around €40 million, is in its final stages, with only minor details left to resolve before medicals early next week.
Insiders say Chelsea acted swiftly once Garnacho was identified as a top priority in their attacking rebuild. The 20-year-old, famed for his explosive pace, fearless dribbling, and match-winning flair, has been one of Old Trafford’s brightest sparks—making his departure all the more shocking for United supporters.
Garnacho is said to be intrigued by Chelsea’s ambitious long-term vision under their revamped sporting leadership. The Blues see him as a future cornerstone, offering creativity, width, and the unpredictability their right flank has lacked.
For United, it’s a bold and painful call—letting go of a player many believed would be the club’s future icon. While the €40m fee will aid reinvestment, the emotional cost to fans is considerable, given Garnacho’s bond with the Old Trafford faithful.
If all goes smoothly, Chelsea fans could see him unveiled before month’s end, with a debut potentially soon after.
From red to blue, this is shaping up to be one of the most dramatic transfers of the Premier League season.
