Real Madrid’s president, Florentino Perez, is reportedly setting his sights on Manchester United’s young star, Alejandro Garnacho, and may seek a conversation with the player during Real Madrid’s upcoming visit to Manchester for the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
Garnacho, a 19-year-old forward, has been making waves in the Premier League, showcasing his talent as one of the most promising players this season. Since his transfer from Atletico Madrid four years ago, he has seized his opportunities with Manchester United, delivering impressive performances that have not gone unnoticed.
With 38 appearances in the 2023–24 season, Garnacho has been involved in 11 goals, scoring seven and assisting four, marking a significant contribution to his team’s efforts. His standout performances have sparked interest from several top clubs, with Real Madrid being one of the keen observers of his development over the past year.
The potential departure of Garnacho could be a significant blow to Manchester United, as he has emerged as a key figure in the squad, especially under the guidance of manager Erik ten Hag. While Manchester United would undoubtedly prefer to retain their rising star, the allure of Real Madrid could present a challenging decision for Garnacho, given the club’s history of attracting some of the world’s most prominent players.
