Chelsea are poised to table a bid for Alejandro Garnacho after Napoli’s offer for the Manchester United winger was rejected.

Per Fabrizio Romano, Napoli have seen an offer worth €50 million (£42m) for Garnacho rejected, and Chelsea are now readying their own offer.

The Argentine winger is nearing an exit from United and his agent was spotted at Stamford Bridge during the Blues’ clash with Wolves. It now appears they will firm up their interest.

Garnacho’s camp are reported to have held positive talks with Chelsea and they appear to be the only suitor in the race.
