Chelsea signed 21-year-old Argentine winger Garnacho from Manchester United for £40 million in the summer window, and the contract also includes a 10% second transfer share clause. This deal is the fourth largest sale in Manchester United's history and the highest price sold by its youth training players. TA wrote an article about the inside story of Garnacho's transfer. The report revealed the fundamental reason for Garnacho's departure, and his relationship with Manchester United coach Amorin has broken down. After losing to Tottenham in the Europa League final in May, Garnacho publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with his only 20 minutes of playing time. A few days later, Amorin told Garnacho in front of the whole team: "You'd better expect a good agent this summer."
Chelsea regarded Garnacho as the ideal candidate to fill the gap in the left winger left by Muderick (suspended for drug testing issues). Although Manchester United initially asked for a price of up to £70 million, the player's own desire to stay in the Premier League and join Chelsea, coupled with the lack of other real competitors, eventually led to a compromise on the price of £40 million. Bayern and Villa have also expressed interest, but have not been close to reaching a deal.
Garnacho has made 144 appearances for Manchester United's first team, contributing 26 goals and 22 assists. Chelsea coach Maresca said Garnacho has adapted well and is ready to start this weekend against Manchester United.
