Chelsea make Alejandro Garnacho sale decision

Chelsea are prepared to consider permanent offers for winger Alejandro Garnacho, who is open to a new challenge, according to reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano.

The west London giants recently confirmed the long-awaited signing of Geovany Quenda from Sporting CP. He is expected to provide competition to Estevao and Pedro Neto on the right wing.

The Blues are also open to pursuing another left winger, and it will coincide with an exit. Garnacho is prepared to leave the club after one season, but the hierarchy will only entertain permanent transfer offers.

Roma have already made contact with the Argentine's entourage and prefer a loan deal with an obligation to buy. They may have to change their terms in order to persuade the Blues to accept a transfer.

Garnacho arrived at Chelsea from Manchester United for £40 million, and the Blues are expected to hold out for a similar package to part ways with the 22-year-old during the transfer window.
