Manchester United Target Chelsea’s Christopher Nkunku in Potential Swap Deal Involving Garnacho

Manchester United really want 24-year-old forward Christopher Nkunku from Chelsea while exploring proposals for an exchange deal to complete the transaction.

After Chelsea acquired Nkunku from France for an estimated £52 million last summer the French international faced numerous setbacks that prevented him from performing effectively at Stamford Bridge.

His debuting Premier League campaign was shorter than expected because of knee complications as he made only three top-tier match starts despite playing notably in cup matches.

Nkunku’s transfer situation remains uncertain as Bayern Munich showed interest in him last summer. Old Trafford is on the radar of Manchester United after the club began investigating ways to secure the player before transfer windows expire.

Christopher Nkunku Is Not Happy At Chelsea

Manchester United has designated possible outgoing transfers this month because their attacking formation continuously struggles so the club stands ready to seize attractive options.

A swap transaction between Manchester United and Alejandro Garnacho is being considered. Napoli plus Chelsea are currently trying to acquire the Argentine playmaker, as both clubs want to sign him this winter.

Garnacho’s coming exit opens doors for Nkunku to join Manchester which would enhance Erik ten Hag’s offensive potential.

Reports by Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg indicate United have put forward Christopher Nkunku as a genuine target to enhance their attacking squad after their mixed start to the season.

Enzo Maresca’s squad transformation efforts lead Chelsea to potentially support Christopher Nkunku’s departure while Chelsea continues their squad rebuild under Mauricio Pochettino.

Manchester United faces well-documented problems with their attack, so the club actively seeks talented acquisitions such as Nkunku, who would accelerate their quest for success.

The closing moments of the summer window have arrived but the possibility of an agreement between these Premier League clubs remains uncertain.
