Chelsea want him to leave permanently or with a guarantee, while Roma are offering him a loan with a buyout clause that could become mandatory.<\/p>\n<p>According to GOAL, Roma&#8217;s offer includes a rental fee of 5 million euros and a buyout option of 35 million euros.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United will also receive 10 per cent of any future sales of Garnacho under the terms of the deal that brought him to Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>Sky Sports reported that Chelsea have made Garnacho available for transfer after he made 43 appearances during a difficult debut season, scoring eight goals and providing four assists.<\/p>\n<p>His contract with Chelsea runs until 2032, meaning there will be little pressure on the London club to accept a discounted offer.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chelsea_departure_could_revive_Garnachos_career\"><\/span>Chelsea departure could revive Garnacho&#8217;s career<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Roma appear to be a smarter move than other immediate transfers within the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>Garnacho is only 22 years old, but after scoring just one goal in 24 league appearances last season, he needs regular appearances, confidence and a clearly defined attacking role.<\/p>\n<p>Xabi Alonso has already confirmed interest from other clubs, indicating that his departure would suit all parties.<\/p>\n<p>Garnacho&#8217;s speed and willingness to attack defenders could serve him well under manager Gian Piero Gasperini, especially if used as an inside forward alongside an attacking wing-back who provides width.<\/p>\n<p>Serie A may also offer him a less intense environment to improve his movement and decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>Rome&#8217;s financial risks remain significant. A potential \u20ac40 million commitment is significant for a player coming off a weak season.<\/p>\n<p>However, some performance-related circumstances could make this trade worthwhile. Chelsea will recoup most of their initial investment, Roma will acquire a winger with high development potential, and Garnacho will now get the fresh start he needs in his career.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Romano admits Premier League rivals are in talks to sign &#8216;fantastic&#8217; Chelsea player<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alejandro Garnacho has reportedly set AS Roma as his preferred destination as Chelsea consider a move less than a year after signing the winger from Manchester United.The Argentina international joined Stamford Bridge for \u00a340m in August 2025 but never really hit the ground running in his first season.
