Alejandro Garnacho finalized his move from Manchester United to Chelsea in the summer transfer period. He appeared in the stands at Stamford Bridge to watch the game in which Chelsea defeated Fulham.

Jamie Carragher openly expressed his frustration about something he described as “unbearable” after Alejandro Garnacho’s transfer from Manchester United to Chelsea. However, this had nothing to do with his football skills or the transfer process itself.

Instead, what irritated Carragher was Garnacho’s behavior upon arriving at Stamford Bridge. During the match against Fulham, less than 8 minutes after kickoff, the cameras caught Garnacho scrolling on his phone instead of watching the game. This image drew significant attention. Carragher candidly stated: “Do you know what really bothered me? During the Fulham match, when the camera panned to the stands, instead of focusing on the ongoing game, Garnacho was completely absorbed in his phone.”

After completing the transfer, Garnacho quickly arrived in London but only watched the Chelsea vs Fulham match from the VIP section of the stands. The 21-year-old newcomer signed a 7-year contract with Chelsea, but due to the late completion of formalities, he was unable to participate in the match.

In the post-transfer window phase, Garnacho will need to prove his fitness and readiness to compete for a starting position at Chelsea. He is likely to make his debut in the Chelsea vs Brentford match on September 14, 2025, after the international break. This will be the moment for the young star to demonstrate the value of the £40 million deal that The Blues have invested in and to begin earning trust from the coaching staff and fans.
