  "textContent": "Alejandro Garnacho endured a poor season at Chelsea (Picture: Getty)\n\nChelsea are open to offers for Alejandro Garnacho this summer after the former Manchester United winger’s disappointing season at Stamford Bridge.\n\nGarnacho was once one of the most highly-rated and promising players at Old Trafford but he fell out of favour under former United boss Ruben Amorim.\n\nChelsea spent £40m to sign the Argentina international last summer and Garnacho hoped to revive his career at the club he supported growing up.\n\nBut Garnacho largely found himself on the periphery of the Chelsea team, starting just 14 Premier League games across the campaign and scoring just once.\n\n##  Last chance to sign up\n\nThis week is your last chance to get our seven-day guide to the World Cup sent directly to your inbox. 48 teams, 104 games, 1,248 players – we've got everything you need to know. Sign up now.\n\nEnzo Maresca, Liam Rosenior and Calum McFarlane all appeared to have doubts over Garnacho, who signed a long-term contract with Chelsea running through to 2032.\n\nGarnacho looks set to move on way before that date, however, with Chelsea already considering a sale ahead of the summer transfer window, according to the Daily Mail.\n\nChelsea are in the market for a versatile attacker and one of the reasons is they are open to offers for Garnacho, who described his move to west London as ‘incredible’.\n\nIncoming Chelsea boss Xabi Alonso (Picture: Getty)\n\nIt is claimed the Blues are willing to show more patience in £52m summer signing Jamie Gittens, whose first season at the club was plagued with injury problems.\n\nChelsea appointed Xabi Alonso as their new manager last month and the former Liverpool and Real Madrid midfielder will take over at the start of July.\n\nAlonso wants two or three ‘ready-made’ players to bolster his team this summer but Chelsea must also move on several stars from their bloated and underperforming squad.\n\nChelsea are willing to give Jamie Gittens more time (Picture: Getty)\n\nThe Daily Mail have named Garnacho, Filip Jorgensen, Axel Disasi and one of Liam Delap, Marc Guiu or Nicolas Jackson as either likely or possible departees.\n\nEnzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella have been heavily linked with summer moves but Chelsea are not ‘actively’ looking to sell either.\n\nFernandez is keen to leave amid interest from Manchester City and Real Madrid but Chelsea would want an eye-watering £120m to part ways with the midfielder.\n\nChelsea are relaxed about Enzo Fernandez’s future (Picture: Getty)\n\nThe 25-year-old frustrated Chelsea supporters with a number of remarks towards the end of the season but the club would be relaxed if he was still part of Alonso’s squad for the 2026-27- campaign.\n\nChelsea have a similar view on £60m signing Cucurella who has also been linked with Man City as well as La Liga rivals Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.\n\nPlayers far more likely to move on include Garnacho and back-up goalkeeper Jorgensen, who has already indicated he wishes to move on.\n\n> https://www.instagram.com/p/DYu68OSje4A/?hl=en&img_index=1\n\nChelsea paid £20m for the Denmark international in 2024 but he was forced to play back-up to No. 1 goalkeeper Robert Sanchez for much of last season, making just six league appearances.\n\nFrench centre-back Disasi, who joined Chelsea for £38.5m three years ago, is available for a transfer but will not return to West Ham following their relegation to the Championship.\n\nChelsea also ‘accept’ that a striker will need to be sold as Jackson prepares to return to a squad that already includes Delap and Guiu.\n\n##  Xabi Alonso on taking Chelsea job\n\n‘Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in world football and it fills me with immense pride to become manager of this great club.\n\n‘From my conversations with the ownership group and sporting leadership, it is clear we share the same ambition.\n\n‘We want to build a team capable of competing consistently at the highest level and fighting for trophies.\n\n‘There is great talent in the squad and huge potential at this football club and it will be my great honour to lead it.\n\n‘Now the focus is on hard work, building the right culture and winning trophies.’\n\nAlonso takes over at Chelsea in July (Picture: Getty)\n\nJackson hoped to turn his loan move at Bayern Munich into a permanent move but did not play enough games for the Bundesliga champions.\n\nThe 24-year-old, who showed glimpses of his potential in his first two years at Chelsea, would want assurances from Alonso over his game-time in order to stay at Stamford Bridge.\n\nJackson was loaned out after Chelsea signed Delap from Ipswich Town but he is already being linked with a move after just 12 months at the club.\n\nThe signing of Delap was seen as real coup given he was being chased by Manchester United and Newcastle United but the 23-year-old scored just two goals last season.\n\nWhile Chelsea are open to offers for several players, the Daily Mail say Cole Palmer, Joao Pedro, Estevao Willian, Moises Caicedo and Josh Acheampong are not for sale.\n\nA decision is yet to be made on the likes of Romeo Lavia, Wesley Fofana, Andrey Santos, Mamadou Sarr and Tosin Adarabioyo ahead of Alonso’s arrival.\n\nThe former Champions League winner has been tasked with improving a Chelsea side that slumped to a 10th-place finish in the Premier League last season.\n\n**For more stories like this, check our sport page**.\n\n**Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on**Facebook,** Twitter and Instagram**.\n\nComment now Comments \nAdd Metro as a Preferred Source on Google\nAdd as preferred source\n",
