Transfer: Two strikers leave Chelsea as club chases Garnacho, Xavi Simons

Chelsea have allowed two strikers leave the club as they continue to chase Xavi Simons (RB Leipzig) and Alejandro Garnacho (Manchester United).

Armando Broja is set to seal a permanent move to newly-promoted Burnley, while Marc Guiu has agreed a one-year loan deal with Sunderland.

The duo’s exit comes after Joao Felix was sold to Saudi Pro League outfit, Al Nassr.

Chelsea are looking to clear up more space for forwards and the trip of Christopher Nkunku, Raheem Sterling and Nico Jackson could still depart.

Football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, tweeted on Friday night: “Armando Broja to Burnley (on a permanent deal) follows Marc Guiu to Sunderland (loan) and João Félix to Al Nassr…

“Chelsea won’t stop, with Nkunku and Sterling also expected to leave this summer. Nico Jackson situation open.

“Xavi Simons & Garnacho, both high on list.”
