Manchester United turned down Chelsea's offer of including Romeo Lavia or Christopher Nkunku as part of the deal that saw Alejandro Garnacho head to Stamford Bridge this summer, sources have told ESPN.
Garnacho, 21, signed for Chelsea in a £40 million ($52.62m) deal on Aug. 30 after falling out of favour under United head coach Ruben Amorim.
United spent £225m on new signings this summer, adding forwards Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko to Amorim's squad before completing a deadline day move for goalkeeper Senne Lammens.
