Alejandro Garnacho, a Spanish-Argentinian winger aged 22, has become one of the headline names in the Premier League market. Aston Villa has requested his loan from Chelsea, and Unai Emery has already approved an operation aimed at strengthening Birmingham's attack. Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso does not count on the player for the new season, and the London club is working on his exit. 

Aston Villa's interest comes at a time when Garnacho is looking to regain prominence after a season where he lost weight within Chelsea's project. Although the London club is studying different formulas to resolve his future, discussions are ongoing, and there is still no definitive agreement between the parties. 

Unai Emery gives the green light to Garnacho's signing

The sporting direction of Aston Villa believes Garnacho fits the profile that Unai Emery is looking for to strengthen the wings. According to recent reports, the English club has already proposed a loan with a purchase option, a strategy that would allow them to bring in the Argentine international without immediately facing a high transfer fee. 

Unai Emery's approval has been crucial in accelerating contacts. The Spanish coach had already considered signing the forward in previous transfer windows and remains confident that he can regain the level he showed during his time at Manchester United.

Garnacho played 43 official matches with Chelsea last season, scoring 8 goals and providing 4 assists. However, he only scored one goal in the Premier League, numbers that ultimately distanced him from a regular spot in the starting eleven.

Chelsea and Xabi Alonso seek a solution

Xabi Alonso's arrival at Chelsea's helm has changed the outlook for the winger. The Spanish coach recently confirmed that the club is in talks to find a way out for the player, making it clear that he is not part of their sporting plans for the new season. 

The Chelsea signed Garnacho last summer for around £40 million, and the player's contract runs until 2032. The London club currently values the forward at around €50 million, although Aston Villa's proposed scheme initially involves a loan.

That point represents the main obstacle in the negotiation. Various reports suggest that Chelsea prefers a permanent transfer to balance their squad and generate income, while Aston Villa seeks to reduce the financial impact of the operation through a loan with a buyout clause later on. 

Garnacho's future will be decided in the coming weeks

Discussions between Chelsea and Aston Villa are ongoing, with Unai Emery backing the winger's arrival as one of the priorities for strengthening the squad. If both parties can come to an agreement on the deal format, Garnacho could become one of the notable moves in the final stages of the summer transfer market. For now, the player is waiting for an operation to be defined, depending on whether Chelsea agrees to adjust its exit conditions.
