Chelsea have now advanced their interest in Garnacho, as revealed by Matt Law of the Daily Telegraph, who reports background checks have been made over his character, which have not raised any concerns for the Blues.

Chelsea have offered two players to Manchester United as they look for a creative solution to bring Alejandro Garnacho to Stamford Bridge. The Blues were keen to sign Garnacho during the January transfer window and have revived their interest in the Argentina international this summer.
