Chelsea’s Garnacho Move Stalls Over Nkunku Sale

Alejandro Garnacho (Manchester United)
August 2025

Chelsea’s pursuit of Alejandro Garnacho is stalling as the club struggles to sell Christopher Nkunku. Chelsea want £50m for Nkunku after rejecting Bayern’s loan bid, while United value Garnacho at £50m. Garnacho only wants Chelsea before the September 1 deadline. Unless Chelsea offload Nkunku, Garnacho’s arrival could collapse. The Blues’ reluctance to lower their valuation complicates the deal, leaving United frustrated while Garnacho waits on Stamford Bridge. The saga highlights Chelsea’s transfer balancing act as the window enters its final weeks.
