Alejandro Garnacho shows true colours with what he did just hours after Man United impact vs Fulham

Alejandro Garnacho has been pictured working hard in the gym after helping Manchester United to a 1-0 opening day victory over Fulham at Old Trafford.

The 20-year-old came off the bench and provided an assist for Joshua Zirkzee to score the winner as United started the Premier League campaign with three points. However, Garnacho had a moment to forget as United tried to add a second deep in stoppage-time.

Marcus Rashford ran through on goal and unselfishly squared the ball across to Garnacho, who only needed to stoke the ball into an empty net, but instead he dreadfully dragged his effort wide. Garnacho cut a frustrated figure after the final whistle and didn't look pleased despite the result, with Ruud van Nistelrooy showing a touch of class and embracing the Argentine.

It's safe to say Garnacho was left discontented with his cameo, though that hasn't stopped him from putting in the hard yards and getting straight back to work less than two days after the win against Fulham. On Sunday, Garnacho was spotted in the gym working at NAS Elite Sports Performance, a state-of-the art athlete development and wellness centre that is situated near Manchester City Centre.

Garnacho reposted an Instagram story that showed him performing a lunge alongside some weights. He is now starting to display signs that he is determined to get fitter and stronger as he bids to improve on an impressive 2023/24 campaign, which ended with him scoring in the FA Cup final against Manchester City. He scored 10 goals and added five assists in 50 appearances across all competitions last
