Alejandro Garnacho at Aston Villa

Initially, Villa took Garnacho on a season-long loan from Chelsea in July 2026. Specifically, the deal carries a conditional obligation to buy. Consequently, he joined a squad already holding the Europa League trophy. Additionally, he joined Emiliano Buendía as a second Argentine in the squad. Furthermore, Unai Emery praised his talent on arrival.

Subsequently, Garnacho began the 2026/27 campaign in Emery’s squad. Presently, he holds one league appearance and no goals for Villa. Crucially, the loan runs until June 2027. Moreover, Chelsea had bought Morgan Rogers from Villa that same summer. Ultimately, the obligation to buy could make the move permanent.

Career Before Aston Villa

Subsequently, he made his senior debut during the 2021/22 season. Furthermore, he scored seven league goals during 2023/24. Additionally, he won the EFL Cup and the FA Cup at Old Trafford.

Afterwards, Chelsea paid a reported £40m for him in August 2025. Specifically, he made 24 league appearances and scored once. Meanwhile, Chelsea finished tenth and won nothing that season. Consequently, they allowed him to leave the following summer. Ultimately, Argentina also capped him during their 2024 Copa América triumph.
