Unnamed European side have submitted loan offer with £60 million purchase option for Alejandro Garnacho – Man United News And Transfer News


Ruben Amorim has not been afraid to take bold calls since his appointment as seen from what transpired before the Manchester derby last Sunday.

The Portuguese dropped both his top scorers — Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho for the clash, yet his team were in control against Pep Guardiola’s side and emerged triumphant.

“We try to evaluate everything – training, performance, game performance, engagement with the teammates, push the teammates up,” was the reasoning given by the new head coach behind the decision which was supported by INEOS.

The Argentine has since returned to the matchday squad for the Carabao Cup quarter-final clash against Tottenham Hotspur with the head coach revealing that the academy graduate is unhappy with him for his decision to drop him.

“He trained really well. He seems a little bit upset with me and that is perfect! I was really, really happy because I would do the same. He is ready for this game,” the coach said.

Recently, the 20-year-old has courted controversy for his below-par training and off-field conduct while both the forward and his brother were also accused of leaking team news with the coach even talking to the player afterwards.

Both have categorically denied those charges but the rumour mill has gone into overdrive, linking the Argentina international with an exit from Old Trafford.

Atletico Madrid were linked with a shock swoop recently while CaughtOffside have now claimed than an unnamed European giant have come forward with a loan offer with an obligation to buy for £60 million.

Loan to buy offer

“CaughtOffside sources now understand that the Argentinian has since attracted interest from an as yet unnamed European club to sign him on loan from Red Devils with a £60m permanent purchase option.

“Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, FC Bayern Munich, Chelsea, FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus and Al Hilal are all rumoured to be interested, with one of them seeing Garnacho as their main transfer target to strengthen their squad due to his age and general performance levels.”

Garnacho is the top-scorer for United this season with eight goals and four assists in 24 appearances and his contract with the Red Devils is valid until 2028 having signed a new deal last year.

United have no intention of selling their prized asset just yet but it is upto the winger to impress Amorim and reclaim his position as a starter after the recent controversies.
