Manchester United have rejected an offer from Italian Serie A top side Napoli for their young winger Alejandro Garnacho. The Serie A side has made the 20-year-old Garnacho their number-one target and plan to use money raised from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia departure to Paris St-Germain.
However, they have failed with an initial approach for Garnacho. It is said that the price they are offering fell significantly below the Red Devils’ valuation of the Argentina international. According to reports, it is said that the opening the Italian side brought was around £40m.
Though United will listen to offers for academy products to fund a rebuild for manager Ruben Amorim, they are ready to entertain bids for Garnacho or Kobbie Mainoo. Speaking on Wednesday, Amorim said Garnacho had a future at Old Trafford.
He also said: “That is clear. He has talent.” “I think he changed the way he sees himself.” “He’s finding the best way to play in this system and is improving during training.”
Garnacho played the full 90 minutes as United came from behind to win Southampton 3-1 at Old Trafford on Thursday. He has scored eight times in 31 appearances this season.
