Napoli face tough test to sign Alejandro Garnacho after three Serie A clubs enter race for ex-Man Utd star

Former Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho has reportedly attracted the interest of Napoli and three more Serie A sides amid his disappointing Chelsea spell.

Alejandro Garnacho was offloaded from Old Trafford last summer after Ineos sanctioned the Spain-born talent’s transfer to Chelsea for a £40m transfer fee.

The 21-year-old Argentina international was offered a fresh start at Stamford Bridge after Garnacho’s troubled relationship with Ruben Amorim at the Red Devils.

However, Garnacho has struggled at Chelsea in his debut season and Napoli are one of the clubs offering the former Manchester United star a route out of the Blues.

Alejandro Garnacho is now on the transfer radar of Juventus, AC Milan and Roma amid Napoli’s interest in the ex-Man Utd man

Napoli’s desire to sign Alejandro Garnacho from Chelsea extends back to the Serie A club’s interest in the Argentina winger when he was at Manchester United.

United batted away Napoli’s interest in Garnacho during the 2024-25 campaign and were demanding a £70m transfer fee if they were to sell him in January 2025.

Garnacho’s disappointing spell at Stamford Bridge has now cracked the door open for four Serie A clubs to consider a potential move for him in the summer.

According to AsRomaLive, Juventus, AC Milan and Roma could now be ready to challenge Napoli in the race to sign Garnacho from Premier League side Chelsea.

Why would Juventus, AC Milan and Roma want to sign Napoli-linked Alejandro Garnacho after the ex-Man Utd star’s struggles?

Garnacho, who is under contract with Chelsea until 2032, netted only eight times and picked up four assists for the Blues in 43 matches across all competitions.

AsRomaLive reports that Juventus, AC Milan and Roma are all keen to reinforce their attacking options in the summer, specifically around their choice of wingers.

The publication added that the three aforementioned Serie A clubs are ready to pounce on Garnacho’s ‘difficult season’ if the ‘right conditions arise’ this summer.

However, it is believed that Chelsea will now hold out for a bid that would allow them to ‘recoup almost all of their investment’ on the 2025 transfer from United.
