Manchester United and Chelsea are considering a plan to exchange hit players in the summer transfer window, with two notable names: Alejandro Garnacho and Nicolas Jackson.
MU considers to change Garnacho for Nicolas Jackson
Both Man United and Chelsea are aimed at rebuilding and improving financial balance to ensure compliance with the Premier League's profit and sustainability (PSR) rules.
With an urgent need to increase firepower in attack, Man United brought Nicolas Jackson into sights. Although no official proposal has been sent, according to Inews, “Red Devils” are closely monitoring the situation of the Senegal striker, especially when Chelsea increasingly chosen in the center.

Despite scoring 24 goals in the Premier League in two seasons, Jackson seems to be gradually losing his foothold in Stamford Bridge after the appearance of Joao Pedro and Liam Delap. The increasingly fierce competition can make Chelsea leadership forced to consider selling people to reduce the squad load.
In the opposite direction, Garnacho's situation at Old Trafford is not very bright. The Argentine winger expressed his desire to leave this summer and is currently being separated from the first team, practicing with names that are no longer in the plan like Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Antony or Tyrell Malacia. Although Chelsea has not officially acted, the potential and quality of Garnacho are making them particularly interested.
According to internal sources, both clubs prioritize the sale to maximize profits and create financial flexibility. With United, the sale of an academy player like Garnacho is recognized as a pure profit. However, the £ 60 million pricing has made many teams back down. “Red Devils” are said to be willing to lower the price to £ 50 million, but that number is still considered too high for teams who are watching the situation like Aston Villa or Tottenham.
On the side of Chelsea, they also valued Jackson at £ 60 million, but at the pressure of competition and the risk of lack of time, many sources said that the West London team would be forced to lower prices if they wanted to resolve the future of this striker soon.
Although the negotiations are still in the exploration stage, the idea of swap between Garnacho and Jackson is increasingly receiving great attention from both sides. If everything is favorable, this can become one of the most notable exchange deals this summer.
