Alejandro Garnacho can seal Man United exit path thanks to £125m transfer confirmation

Alejandro Garnacho has fallen into the category of Manchester United players who seemed destined for moves away from the club this summer.

Last summer, Garnacho was unattainable after coming through the academy and breaking into Erik ten Hag's first team. However, with the growing need to comply with Profit and Sustainability rules (PSR), the Argentine, alongside Kobbie Mainoo, was made available.

In January, Napoli were unsuccessful with their attempt to add him to Antonio Conte's squad and Chelsea's interest did not amount to anything. Since the January window closed, he has scored just three goals and four assists.

After three off-the-pitch incidents that haven't painted him in the best light, being dropped for the Manchester derby in December on account of his attitude and then heading down the tunnel after his first-half substitute against Ipswich in February, the time is now for him to depart.

His decision to then criticise Ruben Amorim's selection and slam the "s**t season" after the Europa League final defeat has spelled the end. Since the defeat in Bilbao, teams are circling around the 20-year-old with AC Milan and Aston Villa the latest teams to register an interest.

However, Caught Offside have reported how Erik ten Hag and Bayer Leverkusen want to give Garnacho a lifeline. The report adds that Leverkusen want to bring Garnacho to the BayArena on loan for the season, a deal that United aren't in favour of.

Should we see Garnacho reunite with Ten Hag, the manager who integrated him into the first team, it would come as a result of Leverkusen banking £125million. Florian Wirtz, one of Ten Hag's current best players in Germany, continues to be strongly linked with a move to Liverpool.
