Napoli is considering revisiting negotiations with Manchester United for Alejandro Garnacho, as reported by Sky Sports on Tuesday. The two clubs have agreed to resume talks in an attempt to find a compromise. Napoli aims to secure a preliminary agreement with the winger and his representatives, with the goal of negotiating down United’s demands.
While Chelsea has been monitoring the situation with the Argentine international, they have not made a formal approach yet. Garnacho is currently leaning towards Napoli, as they are in need of a new wide player after losing Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Paris Saint-Germain earlier this month.
In the words of journalist Steve Kay, “Tottenham has made a serious inquiry about Garnacho,” with continued interest from Atletico Madrid, PSG, and Juventus, as highlighted by CaughtOffside. If the right offer comes in, United may consider selling, although Atletico and Juventus may struggle to meet the asking price.
The speculation surrounding Garnacho’s future at Manchester United was sparked by Rúben Amorim’s decision to leave him out of the Manchester derby last month. According to the Daily Mail, Garnacho is no longer considered “untouchable” at Old Trafford, with top European clubs such as Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, AC Milan, Real Madrid, and Barcelona closely monitoring his situation.
Although a transfer is not imminent, United may be open to offers around £70 million. However, this could pose a challenge for clubs like Atletico Madrid and Juventus.
