Chelsea are ‘open to offers’ for Alejandro Garnacho ahead of the summer transfer window and will also consider bids for unsettled Enzo Fernandez .

Garnacho has endured a difficult first season at Stamford Bridge following his £40m move from Manchester United last summer , scoring just once in the Premier League .

The Argentina international was once one of the most highly-rated players at Old Trafford but his United career stagnated following spats with multiple managers .

Garnacho hoped to revive his career at Chelsea, the club he supported growing up, but has struggled to make an impact, starting less than a half of the club’s games.

The 21-year-old is contracted to Chelsea until 2032 but has already been linked with a move away from west London.

The Telegraph claim Chelsea are ‘open to offers’ for Garnacho ahead of the summer as they look to make space in the squad for even more new signings.

Possible landing spots for Garnacho are unclear but he attracted interest from a number of Italian clubs towards the end of his Manchester United career.

Garnacho might not be the only high-profile departure from Stamford Bridge this summer with Chelsea also ‘willing to sell’ influential midfielder Fernandez, according to The Guardian .

Fernandez has repeatedly flirted with Real Madrid since Chelsea’s Champions League exit at the hands of PSG, with the comments leading former manager Liam Rosenior to drop the World Cup winner for two games.

Rosenior insisted the matter had been put to bed before his sacking but Fernandez continues to be the subject of much transfer speculation.

While it is claimed Chelsea have not ruled out selling Fernandez, they will demand a ‘high price’ for a player who cost them more than £100m back in 2023 .

England star Cole Palmer has also been linked with a move away from Chelsea following a more subdued season for the former Premier League Young Player of the Season.

Manchester United are reportedly keeping tabs on Palmer’s situation but a deal looks unlikely while fellow playmaker Bruno Fernandes is at Old Trafford.

Chelsea lost their last five Premier League games without scoring a goal under Rosenior, who spent just three months in charge of the club.

The Blues got back to winning ways in the FA Cup on Sunday, beating Leeds United 1-0 to reach the final , where they will meet Manchester City.

Before that interim boss Calum McFarlane will look to boost Chelsea’s fading European hopes with Premier League fixtures against Nottingham Forest and Liverpool.
