Manchester United’s miserable post-season tour sunk to a new low as Alejandro Garnacho became involved in an altercation with a fan in Malaysia.
New footage has emerged of the United outcast, who is set to leave Old Trafford in the summer after a spat with Ruben Amorim, appearing to ‘push’ a supporter as he strided through the streets of Kuala Lumpur.
The video, first posted on TikTok, shows a moody Garnacho, wearing sunglasses and a golden chain, ignoring the fan as he asks if he prefers Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo.
‘Bro, you pushed me,’ the shocked supporter then exclaims.
The incident heaps further misery on United, who were already humiliated after losing 1-0 to exhibition side ASEAN All-Stars on Wednesday.
It comes just a day after Amad Diallo went viral for putting his middle fingers up at fans.

The Ivorian was seen performing the obscene gesture as he left the team’s hotel.
The 22-year-old rushed to social media to admit he did not regret making the gesture and that it was in response to someone who shouted personal abuse relating to his mother.
‘I have respect for people but not for the one who insults my mom…’ he said on X.
‘I shouldn’t have reacted like that but I don’t regret what I did.
‘We had a great time in Malaysia with good people.’
Meanwhile, Garnacho was brutally warned by Amorim that he needs to ‘pray’ he can find a new club in front of team-mates.

The Red Devils went on to lose 1-0, with Garnacho only featuring for 20 minutes from bench and the Argentine failed to hide his frustration with Amorim as he admitted it had been a ‘s***’ season for the club.

His agent brother then added fuel to the fire by posting on Instagram that the winger had been ‘thrown under the bus’ by the Portuguese boss.
Despite a turbulent week, Garnacho featured for United in their embarassing post-season friendly defeat to exhibition side ASEAN All-Stars on Wednesday before starting against Hong Kong on Friday.
Fans are further convinced his days in Manchester are numbered after he appeared glum at a shirt signing event in Malaysia.
Amad yesterday urged Garnacho to stay at United next season despite his fiery dispute with Amorim.
Speaking ahead of their friendly against Hong Kong, Amad leapt to Garnacho’s defence, claiming the dispute is not an issue for the team.
The Ivorian said: ‘Alejandro is a really good player and we need good players in the team. I know Garna really well, so I hope to have Garna next season.
‘It is not really a big issue for the team. Everything is good now.’
Ruben Amorim told Garnacho he needs to ‘pray’ he can find a new club in front of team-mates
Garnacho’s brother furiously lashed out at Amorim’s decision to drop him on social media
Garnacho was omitted from United’s squad for their final game of the season against Villa and it would represent a remarkable u-turn if he were to remain at the club.
His partner appeared to confirm his departure with a cryptic two-word message to fans on social media just hours before the Villa encounter.
She posted a picture of a baby-sized United kit alongside the words ‘last match’, accompanied by a tearful emoji and a heart on Instagram.
A sale would represent pure profit under financial fair play rules, as the winger came through the club’s academy system.
