Manchester United fans agree with Alejandro Garnacho message after breakthrough season

Alejandro Garnacho has reflected on a memorable season for him personally at Manchester United.

The 17-year-old, who joined the club from Atletico Madrid in October 2020, has experienced a season to remember at Old Trafford for a variety of reasons. He stepped off the bench in the closing stages of last month's 1-1 draw with Chelsea to make his senior debut and made a late appearance against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

As well as being handed two first-team appearances by outgoing boss Ralf Rangnick, he also played a key role in helping the U18s become the first United team to win the FA Youth Cup since 2011. He scored seven goals across the course of their cup-winning campaign, including two goals in the 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest in the final earlier this month.
