Chelsea Nears Deals for Simons, Garnacho in Summer Window

Chelsea is actively pursuing Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho during the summer transfer window, with the 21-year-old reportedly keen on joining the Blues. Despite some concerns over Garnacho's previous conduct and fallout with Man United manager Ruben Amorim, Chelsea has completed background checks and found no character issues, making a move more likely. Chelsea's current transfer focus includes completing deals for Jorrel Hato and RB Leipzig's Xavi Simons, but they are waiting to clear out surplus players before finalizing further signings. Garnacho is considered a priority target for Chelsea over other interested clubs like Napoli, Atletico Madrid, and Aston Villa. Man United remains open to retaining Garnacho if no satisfactory offers arrive before the deadline, with Amorim indicating the players might rejoin the squad if they can't move. Overall, Chelsea is expected to make an official offer for Garnacho soon, pending agreement with Manchester United and squad adjustments.
