Manchester United are ready to ‘accelerate’ the exit of Alejandro Garnacho from the club, according to a bombshell report.
Although the Argentine has featured regularly under Ruben Amorim, it is claimed that the 20-year-old winger has grown disillusioned with life at Old Trafford and is ready to move on.
Man Utd’s progress to the Europa League final has not helped Garnacho’s situation any. Although Amorim watched his side romp to a 4-1 second-leg victory, it was a game in which the South American youngster passed up an excellent first-half chance and was replaced before the Old Trafford side took a grasp on the game.
Twist in Garnacho’s future
United are set to push Garnacho out of the club by the end of the month, GMS reports.
Such a deal would help fuel Man Utd’s own summer transfer ambitions, providing them with greater flexibility to comply with Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.
There are, however, doubts over whether Napoli are still interested in a deal, having been put off by the Red Devils’ exorbitant demands regarding a transfer fee for the player in January.
TBR Football states that Garnacho is frustrated with his situation at Man Utd, with Amorim’s treatment of him treatment of him a big reason for this.
Chelsea are said to be following his case, with Matheus Cunha’s imminent arrival at Old Trafford said to be a major reason for the imminent departure of the attacker.
Man Utd are said to want more than €70 million (£60m) for Garnacho, who has an Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of €60m.
