The1905.Club Summary

Chelsea remain active in the transfer market on deadline day, with Ben Chilwell set to join Crystal Palace and Axel Disasi linked to Tottenham. While their incomings have been quiet, reports indicate that a move for Alejandro Garnacho could still be possible. Journalist Ben Jacobs claims that if Chelsea bid for Garnacho, a deal could be struck, potentially involving Christopher Nkunku moving in the opposite direction to Manchester United. However, Chelsea may be cautious given the history of transfers between the two clubs, as players moving from United to Chelsea – and vice versa – have often struggled.

Key Points

  • Chelsea could sign Garnacho on deadline day if they make a formal bid.
  • Ben Jacobs suggests a deal could involve Christopher Nkunku moving to United, but Chelsea are reluctant to let Nkunku leave on loan.
  • No formal bid has been placed yet, but speculation remains over a last-minute move.
  • Chelsea’s previous signings from United, including Jadon Sancho and Juan Sebastian Veron, have struggled.
  • Similarly, United’s signings from Chelsea, like Mason Mount and Juan Mata, have not hit their peak at Old Trafford.
  • Garnacho is valued at around £60m, meaning Chelsea would need to invest heavily if they pursue the deal.
