La Derecha Diario Alejandro Garnacho, close to leaving Manchester United after his conflict with Amorim
The tense relationship with his coach is distancing him from Old Trafford, and several European clubs have already shown interest in the young Argentine
Alejandro Garnacho is getting closer to leaving Manchester United. The relationship with coach Ruben Amorim is completely deteriorated due to multiple clashes throughout the season, which forces the young forward to explore new options in the upcoming European summer transfer window.
In this context, Diario AS commented on the situation, providing details about the player's possible destinations, who has already gone two drafts without being included by Lionel Scaloni in the Argentina National Team. The outlet revealed that there are alternatives both in English football and in other European countries.
Among the first interested parties are Aston Villa and Chelsea, who, according to reports, have already formally expressed their intention to sign the Spanish-Argentine naturalized player. If either of these moves materializes, he would share a team with Dibu Martínez or with Enzo Fernández and Aaron Anselmino, respectively.
However, for the transfer to become a reality, one of these clubs will have to pay the 50 million euros that United demands as an exit fee.
Despite this high price, Napoli, which already tried to sign him on loan at the beginning of 2025, and Bayer Leverkusen are also still in contact with the Old Trafford club, according to the Spanish newspaper, seeking to close a possible deal.
Tension between Garnacho and Amorim: a relationship with no return
The differences between Garnacho and Ruben Amorim have been publicly exposed by both parties. The Portuguese coach expressed his dissatisfaction with the Argentine's behavior both on and off the field, which is why he left him out of the Manchester Derby last December. Since that episode, Garnacho began to give "likes" to posts critical of Amorim on social media.
There was a brief pause in the conflict that ended after the Europa League final. In the final held at San Mamés, where United lost 1-0 to Tottenham, the player showed his annoyance at having played only in the last 20 minutes.
However, the clash did not end there. During the subsequent press conference, the coach replied to Garnacho by reminding him of the missed chances in the semifinal against Athletic Club.
In the same vein, British media reported that, after the defeat to Spurs and in the locker room, the former Sporting Lisbon coach allegedly issued a blunt warning to the young forward: "pray that a club signs you".
