Overview

• Talks are described as close but not agreed, with both clubs working to finalize the move in the coming days, according to Fabrizio Romano.
• The proposed deal depends on Nicolas Jackson’s exit, with reports of a verbal understanding with Bayern Munich and Chelsea seeking about €70 million as clubs negotiate terms.
• Garnacho has not featured in Manchester United’s first two league matches and is unlikely to play while his departure is discussed following reported differences with manager Rúben Amorim.
• The 21-year-old has reportedly made Chelsea his only preferred destination, with the stance characterized as “Chelsea or nothing.”
• With less than a week left in the European window, failure to complete a transfer could leave Garnacho inactive for six months and further jeopardize his Argentina national-team prospects.
