Villarreal are reportedly looking to secure the services of Chelsea misfit Alejandro Garnacho on loan ahead of next season.
Alejandro Garnacho’s future was a massive talking point last summer as he tried to force his way out of Manchester United. The Argentine winger did secure a move to Chelsea, but he has failed to have the desired impact at the London club.
Garnacho’s future is once again up in the air, and according to a report from Fichajes, Villarreal are keen on signing the 21-year-old. The Yellow Submarine are plotting a raid on Chelsea to secure his services on loan.
Since moving to the London club, Alejandro Garnacho has been involved in a total of 38 matches but has racked up less than 2,000 minutes and only has eight goals and four assists to his name. While he certainly has massive potential, things have not been that great for him at Stamford Bridge.
The 21-year-old does not have the best of relationships with the current coaching staff, and it could lead to a departure in the summer, with recent reports linking him with River Plate. Villarreal are also keeping a close eye on the situation, and they could look to make the most out of it.
Villarreal want to sign Garnacho this summer
The Spanish club want more quality on the flanks; they want to bring in someone who can stretch the opposition backline and take on defenders. Alejandro Garnacho, with his pace and goal-scoring ability, could prove to be a very valuable addition to Marcelino Garcia Toral’s squad.
They are looking to put forward a proposal for a loan move with an option to buy, which will be triggered depending on his performances in Spain. The Yellow Submarine see this as a calculated risk that could provide enormous returns. Marcelino is certainly confident about bringing the best out of him.
Villarreal want to build a squad capable enough to compete in Europe, and Garancho could certainly help their cause by bolstering their attack. While Chelsea are yet to make a final decision on his future, they are likely to sign more players in the summer, which could lead to his departure. The player’s camp could welcome a return to Spain, where his individual qualities could shine.
