Man Utd receive SHOCK Garnacho swap deal offer

Atletico Madrid have submitted an offer to re-sign Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho, according to sensational reports in Spain.

The 20-year-old left Diego Simeone’s side to secure an Old Trafford switch back in 2020, but the Spanish giants are eager to bring him back to the club next year.

That is according to Fichajes, who report that Atletico Madrid have already lodged a player-plus-cash swap deal offer for Garnacho.

The Spanish outlet claim that Man Utd have received a €40 million bid for the Argentine, in addition to talented midfielder Pablo Barrios. However, the Red Devils are set to reject Atleti’s opening offer, with INEOS expecting an offer of at least €60m plus Barrios.

Garnacho has previously been described as “untouchable” by the Man Utd hierarchy, but rumours of an exit have intensified in recent weeks amid criticism aimed at the Argentine by Red Devils supporters.

Barcelona and Juventus have both been linked with a move for Garnacho, while Atletico Madrid have now joined the race for the 20-year-old’s signature, with his future at Old Trafford seemingly uncertain.

Garnacho has seven goals and four assists in 18 appearances across all competitions so far this season, but he has been slammed by a section of the Man Utd fanbase for his recent performances.

Alejandro Garnacho says goodbye to Ruud van Nistelrooy

Following confirmation that Ruud van Nistelrooy has left Man Utd upon Ruben Amorim’s arrival at the club, Garnacho bid farewell to the Dutchman on social media.

The Argentina international posted on Instagram: “It was a short time but it was special. I learned a lot from you and I will keep it to myself for the rest of my career.

“But what I will remember the most is how you are as a person. We will meet again legend.”
