Alejandro Garnacho is one of the few Manchester United wantaways who has ‘genuine options’ available this summer.
That’s according to iSport, which claims the eight-capped Argentine has attracted interest from both Napoli and Chelsea – the same clubs who had targeted him in the winter window – with the former deemed ‘frontrunners’.

As for the freshly-crowned Club World Cup winners, whose triumph at the tournament saw them pocket £85 million, they retain their desire to sign Garnacho in the aftermath of Noni Madueke’s move to Arsenal.
They are, however, willing to ‘bide their time’ in hopes of United lowering their £60m valuation in the latter stages of the window. Given how public the club have made their intentions to sell the 21-year-old and how he’ll play no part in Ruben Amorim’s plans, INEOS may be cornered into accepting a cut-price bid next month – or else risk having to U-turn on their decision and keep him on the books.
Alternatively, a move to Napoli would see him reunite with former teammate Scott McTominay, and he’d have a genuine chance of winning his first league title, considering how stellar the reigning Scudetto winners are shaping up for the new term; they added Kevin De Bruyne to Antonio Conte’s ranks following his release from Manchester City.
The Carrington graduate is tied to Old Trafford until June 2028.
