Garnacho Nkunku
Chelsea's move for Manchester United outcast Alejandro Garnacho is reportedly being held up by their struggles to sell Christopher Nkunku.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The Sun states that Chelsea's 'steep' valuation of Nkunku is holding up a Garnacho transfer to Stamford Bridge. The report states the Blues have rejected a loan bid from Bayern Munich for the France international, and they are holding out for a £50 million ($67.5m) sale for the 27-year-old.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
If Chelsea cannot sell former RB Leipzig star Nkunku this summer, that could jeopardise a Garnacho switch. United are said to want at least £50m for the 21-year-old, who only wants to join Chelsea before the transfer window shuts on September 1.
DID YOU KNOW?
Since signing for Chelsea in the summer of 2023, Nkunku has had an underwhelming stint in west London. Injuries have curtailed his game time but a return of 18 goals in 62 games does not make for great reading. Nor does a paltry six goals in 38 Premier League outings.

WHAT NEXT?
Aside from Chelsea trying to sell Nkunku and buy Garnacho, who is training away from United's first team, Enzo Maresca's side travel to West Ham in their next Premier League encounter on Friday.
