MANCHESTER UNITED outcast Alejandro Garnacho is closing in on a move to Chelsea.
The 21-year-old’s future at Old Trafford was thrown into doubt earlier this year when he clashed with head coach Ruben Amorim.

Garnacho was axed from the squad following the Europa League final in May and has not made a single appearance this season.
But his turmoil is now set to end, with Chelsea on the verge of completing a deal.
The Blues are hoping to see a bid worth up to £40million accepted by United in the coming days.
There is increased confidence that a move will be completed before the transfer deadline next Monday.
Garnacho is only pushing for a move to Chelsea.
The forward has been surplus to requirements at United following the arrivals of Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko this window.
His arrival at Chelsea could prompt the departures of Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku.
Both players have been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge in recent weeks.
