Napoli have yet to revive their talks with Alejandro Garnacho since they first established their interest in the January window.
Indeed, while numerous outlets have suggested the Serie A champions could return for Garnacho this summer, Alfredo Pedulla has confirmed (via Football Italia) that the parties involved have not been in contact since the winter.
Napoli put Alejandro Garnacho interest on the back burner
This comes after Conte reportedly ‘personally demanded’ the board sanction Garnacho’s arrival in the aftermath of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s move to Paris Saint-Germain six months ago.
Where could Garnacho end up this summer?
In regards to the 21-year-old’s other suitors, he remains an option for Chelsea, whilst Aston Villa have also joined the race and Tottenham Hotspur are monitoring his situation from afar.
A Stamford Bridge switch may materialise in the not-so-distant future; Fabrizio Romano has ensured the Blues want to sign both Garnacho and current first-choice target Xavi Simons.
An issue, however, is that they value the eight-capped Argentine international in the region of £30 million, whereas United are expected to demand upwards of £40m to facilitate the sale of their academy graduate.
The same can be said of Villa, who are unlikely to be able to match United’s price tag unless they sanction any major outgoings beforehand. In an ideal world, Garnacho would be sent to Villa Park and prolific frontman Ollie Watkins would sign for the Reds in return.
Man United FC should consider swapping Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee plus Alejandro Garnacho for both Ollie Watkins and Benjamin Sesko plus Jean Phillipe Matetta because those who have been paid far more than they deserve are unsaleable…other teams are aware that Man United FC have been scammed sand these teams are not prepared to sign proven flops.
Personally I think zirkzee and garnacho still have a point to prove, and why sell them for a loss when they can still perform? Your logic makes no sense what so ever. You say they are flops so why would villa swap Watkins for garnacho why would palace swap mateta for zirkee? Come back when you know the vasics
