According to reports,

Chelsea

have set an exit price for former Manchester United star

Alejandro Garnacho

after opening the door to a transfer.

Garnacho

joined

from Man Utd last summer for around £40m following a fallout with former Red Devils boss Ruben Amorim.

The winger has plenty of natural ability, but his attitude has been questioned on many occasions and he struggled to make an impact for

in his debut season at Stamford Bridge.

Garnacho was only used sparingly by

in their disappointing 2025/26 campaign, having only scored a single Premier League goal in his 24 appearances.

Therefore, it is hardly surprising that the Blues are reportedly looking to offload Garnacho in this summer’s transfer window,

with a recent report claiming that he is among four players up for sale by the Premier League giants.

Garnacho has already been linked with a move to Serie A giants Roma, but

a report from our colleagues at

TEAMtalk

claims

Napoli are ‘firm’ contenders in the race to land the winger.

The same report claims Napoli are keen on signing Garnacho on loan with an option to buy this summer, but

are ‘currently reluctant to entertain’ this proposal.

Instead,

have set a ‘jaw-dropping’ price for Garnacho’s exit.

The report explains:

‘Chelsea’s public stance is that they would seek a fee close to £90million, more than double what they paid Man Utd just 12 months ago. ‘Privately, however, sources believe an offer in the region of £60million (€70m, $81m) would leave Chelsea with a major decision to make. Interest is already beginning to gather pace.’

Realistically,

have little to no hope of getting anything close to £60m for Garnacho after his poor 2025/26 campaign.

At this stage,

would be lucky to receive around £30m, so they may have to cave and let Garnacho leave on loan if they become increasingly desperate as this summer progresses.

BBC reporter Nizaar Kinsella is also reporting that the Blues are currently against letting Garnacho leave on loan.

‘Roma are among the clubs linked with a loan move, but Chelsea would consider only a permanent sale. Having failed to qualify for Europe last season, they are looking to trim their squad. ‘It remains unclear what new manager Xabi Alonso’s view of Garnacho is, but it is understood he is playing a significant role in transfer policy alongside the club’s hierarchy.’
