Manchester United are unlikely to entertain Tottenham’s interest in the services of their attacking sensation Alejandro Garnacho.
Alejandro Garnacho’s future has been a massive talking point since the start of the winter transfer window. He has been linked with quite a few top clubs and Tottenham have emerged as a potential destination for the young winger.
But, according to a report from Football Insider, Spurs are unlikely to strike a deal with Manchester United for the Argentine international. The Red Devils will demand a massive fee if they are to sanction his departure to a direct rival.
Garnacho has started on the bench in four out of his last five league games and his future has been up in the air ever since he dropped from the squad for the derby against Manchester City.
While he is back in the mix and has been a great option on the flanks for Ruben Amorim’s team, they are still ready to sanction his departure for the right price because of their financial concern.
United consider him a key part of their first team but could be forced to sell to ease their financial situation. The Red Devils are on the verge of breaching the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules. They could be forced to sell their stars to balance their books.
Tottenham keen on Garnacho, unlikely to win the race
While Kobbie Mainoo has also been linked with a move away, there are high chances of Garnacho being the one who is sacrificed. Tottenham are the ones who are interested in the United. The North London club have been looking for a new wide player since last summer but they haven’t been able to bring in the kind of profile Ange Postecoglou seeks.
Garnacho could be a great option for them as he can be a long-term replacement for Son Heung-min. But, they are unlikely to win the race as United won’t let him join a direct rival. They will demand a massive fee to sell to a rival and will prefer letting him join Italian giants Napoli who have been working on a potential transfer for some time now.
