Alejandro Garnacho was the subject of a Napoli bid during the January transfer window and the Italian champions are back for the Manchester United star after his fall -out with Ruben Amorim
Alejandro Garnacho could escape Manchester United by Napoli – who wants to land him cheaply. The Serie A -side failed with an £ 60 million bid on Garnacho in January, but are back for the winger and hopes to finally get it for £ 45 million.
United is desperate to get rid of Garnacho after his bust with the old Trafford boss Ruben Amorim. The 20-year-old is one of the five united players who told Amorim to stay away from training for the season after they have asked to leave.
Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia train away from the most important United Squad until their future is resolved. United Value Garnacho for £ 60 million, but knows that they will not get that reimbursement, given his public fall-out with Amorim and the desire of the club to discharge it.
It is understood that United will remain in negotiations with Napoli, hoping to close a deal with the Italian champions about Garnacho. Napoli wants Garnacho to join the former Superstar Kevin De Bruyne of Manchester City, who came to them earlier this summer with a free transfer, and former United -midfielder Scott McTominay, Serie A player of the previous term season voted.
And Napoli President Aurelio de Laurentiis thinks Garnacho will become an even better player as soon as he leaves United. “Garnacho has pace, flair and potential,” said the Napoli chef.
“But that's not even why we want him. We want him because he's at United. Take him out and he becomes the player twice. There is an error at United that I can't explain”
Garnacho dropped out with Amorim after he was omitted from the starting line-up of United for the last defeat of the Europa League against Tottenham in Bilbao. The Argentina star asked Amorim's decision in the aftermath of the 1-0 defeat of United and said that he would judge his future in the summer.
Does Manchester United Alejandro Garnacho have to sell to Napoli for £ 45 million? Say in the commentary part.
“It is clear for everyone,” a clearly dissatisfied Garnacho told reporters. “Our season was S ***. We did not defeat anyone in the competition. We had missed many things. If you don't score goals, you always need more.
“Until we reached the final, I played every round. And I played 20 minutes today – I don't know. I'm going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens next.”
