Roma's bid for Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho faces rejection from Blues

Summary

Chelsea has rejected an opening bid from Roma for Alejandro Garnacho, as reported today. The new Chelsea manager, Xabi Alonso, has indicated that Garnacho is not part of his plans, leading Roma to express interest in securing the forward. Following the collapse of a deal for another player, Roma is eager to pursue Garnacho, proposing an initial loan with an option to buy.
