The departure of attackers like Madueke, Petrovic, and potentially Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix has placed a premium on attacking reinforcements, specifically, a forward capable of playing across the front line.
Enter Alejandro Garnacho, the Manchester United winger who fits Chelsea’s new blueprint.
Young, Premier League-tested, and able to operate effectively on both wings, Garnacho is reportedly open to staying in England as an end to United tenure looms.

Should a move for Garnacho stall, Malick Fofana remains firmly on Chelsea’s radar.
The Belgian winger has drawn strong interest from top European clubs due to his direct style, quick feet, and ability to create chances under pressure.
Fofana, unlike Garnacho, may be slightly more affordable and open to a developmental role, which could appeal to Chelsea given their crowded forward roster.
With Maresca valuing flexibility and tactical awareness, Fofana offers a high-upside option who can mature alongside Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro.
