Overview

  • The club has informed the 20-year-old winger that he is free to leave and set his transfer fee at £40 million despite an estimated market value of £60–70 million.
  • United officials pointed to surly and uncooperative behaviour during the post-season tour in Asia as a key factor in their decision.
  • Garnacho publicly described the campaign as “s***” and complained about limited Europa League final minutes under manager Ruben Amorim.
  • Napoli and Chelsea have registered concrete interest in signing the Argentina international before the transfer window closes.
  • Former players Graeme Souness and David Beckham have criticised United’s dressing-room culture and its effect on emerging talents.
