Chelsea have stepped up their pursuit of Manchester United<\/a> winger Alejandro Garnacho<\/a> with the Old Trafford outcast unwilling to go anywhere else. The 21-year-old is part of Ruben Amorim’s ‘bomb squad’<\/a>, having been frozen out alongside Marcus Rashford<\/a>, Jadon Sancho<\/a>, Antony<\/a> and Tyrell Malacia<\/a>.<\/p>\n Rashford has since joined Barcelona<\/a> on loan with an option to buy, but the other four players are still in situ. However, Garnacho could be set to get his move away, with Chelsea<\/a> ready to offer him a fresh start.<\/p>\n According to the Athletic<\/a>, talks over a deal for Garnacho have ‘advanced’ and the player is said to have ‘ruled out all options this summer’ other than joining Chelsea or remaining at United.<\/p>\n Chelsea have had a longstanding interest in Garnacho and it is claimed that he expects the move to happen. Garnacho and Amorim fell out after the winger was benched for United’s Europa League<\/a> final defeat to Tottenham<\/a>.<\/p>\n Immediately after the final, Garnacho was critical of Amorim<\/a> and told reporters: “It’s hard for everyone. The season was s***, both now losing the final tonight, and in the league, where we didn’t beat anyone, that’s the truth.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Transfer news LIVE: Man Utd agree \u00a374m Sesko deal, Liverpool star set for exit, Arsenal latest<\/a>READ MORE: Win Premier League Tickets to Chelsea v Crystal Palace or Man City v Tottenham<\/a><\/p>\n “Up until the final, I’ve played every round, and today to play 20 minutes\u2026 I don’t know. I’m going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens after.”<\/p>\n And when asked about Garnacho’s future earlier this month, Amorim said: “I think with Garnacho, you can understand and you can see that he’s talented, he’s a really talented boy. But sometimes things don’t work out and you cannot explain specifically what it is.<\/p>\n “But I have the feeling \u2013 and I think it’s clear – that Garnacho wants a different thing with a different leadership and I can understand that.<\/p>\n “So I don’t think it’s a problem. Sometimes you adapt to one guy and you have the connection. Other times you want a new challenge.<\/p>\n “So we try to make everything OK for all parties. To the club, to the coach and to the player. It’s a natural thing in football.”<\/p>\n United have revamped their attacking department this summer after scoring a paltry 44 league goals last term. Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo have already joined from Brentford and Wolves<\/a> respectively, with Benjamin Sesko now closing in on a move.<\/p>\n The RB Leipzig striker agreed a deal to sign for the Red Devils on Thursday, having turned down a more lucrative offer from Newcastle<\/a>. Sesko will now fly into Manchester imminently, completing his medical before the weekend, with an announcement expected shortly after.<\/p>\n Join our new MAN UTD WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of Manchester United content from Mirror Football.
