Former Manchester United and England defender Gary Neville has said that one swap deal would favour Chelsea more over his former club.
There’s so many rumours flying around right now but not a lot of action with just days now remaining in the transfer window.
We are hearing plenty about Chelsea’s interest in Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho. And as well as that, we have been hearing that Chelsea have a player that United like as well in Christopher Nkunku. So naturally, as is what happens a lot these days, an unofficial swap deal has been touted between the two clubs with Garnacho heading to Stamford Bridge, and Nkunku heading to Old Trafford. It doesn’t seem like something that is close yet, but it does feel like it could be something that might be possible.

Neville has urged United to think twice over a move for Nkunku.
“I don’t get it for United,” he told NBC Sports when asked about the potential swap.
“Nkunku’s hardly kicked a ball, he obviously had the injury when he first came in but he’s struggled to get going at Chelsea.
“I’m not saying Garnacho is the best player in the world and that he needs to stay at Manchester United. If they get good money for him then okay that might work.
“But to swap him for Nkunku, I have to say that doesn’t feel like I move I would do if I was Manchester United.
“I can see why you would do it if you were Chelsea.”
