United ready to move Garnacho on from Old Trafford; Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Napoli among interested clubs

Manchester United have reportedly placed a £70 million valuation on Alejandro Garnacho amid growing interest from top European clubs.

Multiple elite clubs, including Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, Napoli and Bayer Leverkusen are monitoring Garnacho’s situation, according to the Independent. Chelsea are long-time admirers of the Argentine and believe they can persuade him to switch from Manchester to London.

Napoli failed with an approach in January but the club remain interested. Internally, Garnacho is seen in Naples as a potential replacement to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who has moved to Paris Saint-Germain.

Bayer Leverkusen’s new boss Erik ten Hag gave Garnacho his United debut and is a known fan. With the Dutchman having taken over at Bayer Leverkusen, he could be looking to pull off a reunion in Germany.

Aston Villa are a surprise contender given their PSR issues, but it is understood that any move for Garnacho would depend on the sale of Morgan Rogers, who has been linked to Arsenal.

Garnacho is viewed by United as one of the few players at the club who could command a premium fee, with the Red Devils seeking to raise funds for a big squad rebuild under Amorim.
