Chelsea told to pay £65m to sign Alejandro Garnacho
Chelsea have been told to pay £65 million to purchase Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho at the end of the campaign.
The Blues were hot on the trail of the Argentine last winter. His representative was spotted at Stamford Bridge during the transfer window.
A deal did not materialise but this has not ended the speculation.
The west London giants retain a strong interest in the talented winger and are prepared to make a fresh move when the campaign ends.
United are unlikely to sell him on the cheap and are set to demand £65m.
Napoli are also contenders for the former Atletico Madrid graduate, but they may not compete financially with the Blues for him.
Antonio Conte personally spoke with Garnacho to persuade him last winter, but Napoli could not agree personal terms with the forward.
They were also reluctant to pay more than £43m. It seems unlikely that Garnacho will move to the Naples outfit during the summer.
