Manchester United have received a cash-plus-player “offer” for Alejandro Garnacho and are “open” to letting him leave, according to reports.

The 20-year-old had spells at Getafe and Atletico Madrid before joining Man Utd in 2020 for a fee of around £420,000.

Garnacho has quickly progressed through the ranks at Old Trafford and has already made over 100 appearances for the Premier League giants in all competitions.

The Argentina international has generally been one of Man Utd’s most consistent performers in recent years, but was criticized after his muted celebration against Leicester City in Ruud van Nistelrooy’s last game.

There are fears that the winger will not fit into Ruben Amorim’s system as Paul Scholes believes he is one of four ‘unsuitable’ players for Man Utd’s new head coach.

The uncertainty surrounding Garnacho has led to interest from former club Atletico Madrid, who – according to a report in Spain – have made an ‘offer’ to re-sign him.

The report claims Man Utd are ‘open to listening to offers’ for Garnacho and could get Pablo Barrios in return.

The 21-year-old has made 69 appearances for Atletico Madrid in all competitions and has made seven La Liga starts this season. Most of his outings have come as a central midfielder, but he is capable of playing in a variety of positions.

The report supports.

‘Atletico Madrid are still working on their squad planning and according to various sources, one of the goals of the red and whites is to sign Alejandro Garnacho.

“Atletico Madrid have offered 40m (£33m) for the player, including Pablo Barrios in the deal for the Argentine youngster. Manchester United, on the other hand, are expecting a €60m (£50m) bid for the player, again including Pablo Barrios.’

Man Utd have made a miserable start to the new season and could look busy when the January transfer window opens.

A report from Football transfers claims United have ‘returned’ for Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite and AFC Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez.

“We understand Ineos are very keen on Branthwaite, believing he can be a key figure at the club as a first-choice left centre-back.

“However, the Toffees see Branthwaite as their most valuable player and maintain an asking price of over €70m ahead of next year’s transfer windows.

“Furthermore, sources inform us that United are monitoring Milos Kerkez at Bournemouth. Even though Luke Shaw is fit again, there is real concern over his future at Old Trafford given the number of injuries he has endured. Tyrell Malacia is also rising to the occasion, but is another whose future at the club is in doubt.

“The Cherries are preparing for approaches for a number of their players next year, including Illia Zabarnyi, so it is believed that United will need to move quickly for the Hungary international.”
