Atletico Madrid are reportedly keeping a close eye on Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho, amidst suggestions that the 20-year-old could be sold by the Red Devils in the near future.
Garnacho has struggled to adapt to Ruben Amorim’s new 3-4-3 system at Old Trafford, leading to limited playing time and sparking speculation about his future.
Garnacho’s Struggles Under Amorim
Garnacho’s lacklustre performances in training have seen him left out of the squad on several occasions, including the Manchester derby on December 15.

He has since made four substitute appearances in the Premier League, but has failed to make a significant impact.
However, he did provide an assist in Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Liverpool, setting up Amad Diallo for Manchester United’s second goal at Anfield.
Atletico Madrid’s Interest in Re-Signing Garnacho
Atletico Madrid, where Garnacho spent five years in the academy before joining Manchester United in 2020, are believed to be interested in re-signing the young forward.
Garnacho has impressed for Manchester United’s youth team and has made 115 appearances for the senior side, scoring 23 goals and registering 13 assists in all competitions.
Manchester United’s Financial Constraints
Manchester United are not actively looking to sell Garnacho, but the club’s financial constraints may force them to consider serious offers for the young forward.
With Garnacho’s contract running until June 2028, Manchester United may be tempted to cash in on the Argentine international.
The Importance of Keeping Garnacho
Despite his current struggles, Garnacho has the potential to develop into a superstar for Manchester United.
The Red Devils must look to keep hold of the young forward, as his skills and abilities would be a significant loss to the team.
