Todd Boehly is reportedly fast-tracking a sensational £70m double swoop as Chelsea ramp up their summer transfer push, with Manchester United starlet Alejandro Garnacho and AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan identified as top targets.
Sources reveal that Chelsea’s ownership are working hard to wrap up both signings, aiming to hand Enzo Maresca two marquee additions that could reshape the squad ahead of the new Premier League campaign. The Blues are confident that their Stamford Bridge project will be enough to convince both players, even with fierce competition from Europe’s elite clubs.
Garnacho, just 20, has quickly become one of England’s most exciting young talents at Manchester United, dazzling fans with his pace, dribbling, and finishing ability. Chelsea believe he could transform their attack and are ready to offer him a central role in their project, urging him to snub interest from elsewhere — including Bayern Munich.
Insiders say the club is determined to fight off rivals and make Garnacho a key piece of their long-term rebuild.
On the other hand, Maignan has been marked as the first-choice target in goal, with Chelsea seeking a commanding, world-class presence despite having Robert Sánchez and Đorđe Petrović.
The French international has impressed for both AC Milan and Les Bleus, earning a reputation as one of Europe’s best keepers thanks to his reflexes, distribution, and composure. Chelsea are pushing to bring him to the Premier League, convinced his leadership would solidify their backline.
The proposed £70m package reportedly covers both deals, with Chelsea carefully balancing ambition and smart spending amid Financial Fair Play concerns. After heavy criticism for last summer’s spending spree, this approach is said to be more strategic, focusing on two key positions needing immediate upgrades.
For Garnacho, the decision may hinge on Chelsea’s offer of being a leading figure in Maresca’s youthful side versus staying at Old Trafford or moving abroad. For Maignan, the appeal of the Premier League and Chelsea’s fresh project could be decisive, even as Milan resist losing their No.1.
With the season around the corner, Chelsea fans are eagerly awaiting developments. If Boehly manages to secure both Garnacho and Maignan, it would send shockwaves through the Premier League and reinforce Chelsea’s intent to dominate the transfer market, not just participate in it.
