Chelsea Agree £40m Deal With Man United for Alejandro Garnacho

The £40m fee with a 10% sell-on clause marks Manchester United’s largest sale of a homegrown player.

Overview

  • The winger is scheduled to undergo a medical on Friday before the transfer can be completed.
  • United negotiated the price up from an initial £25m offer to a £40m fixed fee and retained a 10% sell-on clause.
  • Sky Sports reports the sale is United’s fourth-largest overall, with the club viewing the outcome as a pragmatic resolution after the player pushed to leave.
  • Garnacho has been out of the first-team picture under Ruben Amorim, having been told he could go and training away from the senior squad.
  • Standard Sport reports the agreement came after Chelsea accepted AC Milan’s offer for Christopher Nkunku, with personal terms for Garnacho long in place.
