Alejandro Garnacho and his brother have hit out at Ruben Amorim and hinted at a Manchester United exit. The winger was unhappy to have played just 20 minutes in the Europa League final loss to Tottenham Hotspur, while his brother claimed that the manager threw the youngster under the bus.
Speaking to ESPN Argentina, Garnacho expressed surprise at being benched by Amorim despite starting a majority of Europa League matches this season. He hinted that it was time to rethink his future at the club and said (via the Daily Mail):
His brother, who also acts as his agent, was quick ot react on Instagram.
The 20-year-old was linked with an exit in the January transfer window but could not secure a move away. Chelsea, Napoli, and Atletico Madrid were linked with the Manchester United star, and reportedly remain interested in the winger.
Former Manchester United star Paul Parker spoke to BetFred earlier this season and opined that the club would not miss Alejandro Garnacho if he was sold. The 61-year-old also hinted that the winger will regret his decision should he leave Old Trafford.
Garnacho has registered 11 goals and 10 assists from 58 games across competitions this season. It remains to be seen if he will be at the club next season. Interestingly, the Red Devils wanted £70 million for the Argentine in the January window.
