Napoli interested in signing Garnacho as Chelsea open for £40m sale

Summary

Napoli is expressing interest in Alejandro Garnacho, with Chelsea reportedly open to a sale for around £40 million. Following a disappointing debut season at Stamford Bridge, where Garnacho scored eight goals but only one in the Premier League, the club's management is revisiting his role. The arrival of Geovany Quenda has intensified competition for positions in the squad. This potential move could provide Garnacho with a fresh start, having missed out on a spot in Argentina’s World Cup squad due to his underwhelming performance last season.
