Garnacho’s Chelsea Move & Farewell Message…
Alejandro Garnacho calls his time at Manchester United a “special chapter” after his recent £40 million transfer to Chelsea, making him the fourth-highest sale in United’s history. Imagine buying a mansion for your pet iguana—it’s a similar level of investment! Chelsea originally entered the race for Garnacho with a £25 million offer. Despite some challenges, including Garnacho’s relationship with Ruben Amorim turning sour and minor social media misadventures, the winger’s heartfelt farewell on Instagram reveals his gratitude for the unforgettable moments at United.
Garnacho’s farewell notes how he gave his all while wearing the United badge, expressing pride in their shared achievements. Though dropped for the Manchester derby and witnessing Marcus Rashford on an express ticket to Aston Villa, Garnacho eventually returned to United’s squad—just in time for more drama, questioning Amorim’s Europa League lineup choice. He originally signed for United from Atletico Madrid back in September 2020, scoring 26 goals in 144 appearances, leaving fans wondering if United had let go of their own unicorn.
