Alejandro Garnacho’s departure from Manchester United seemed to be secured following Wednesday’s Europa League final loss to Tottenham Hotspur.

Garnacho was a surprise absentee from Ruben Amorim’s starting XI but when he came onto the field he excelled, showing the type of attacking potency that United had missed in his absence.

After the game, the Argentina international forward offered veiled criticism towards Amorim in his post-match comments, while his brother and agent certainly did not hold back on Instagram with a message that will have gone down very badly at Old Trafford.

“Before the final, I played every match, I helped the team,” Garnacho told the media. “Today, playing 20 minutes…

“Can it influence my future? The match has an impact but the season itself was crap and the situation at the club…

“I’m going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens next.”

Amorim was asked about these comments in his press conference.

The Man Utd head coach replied: “It’s easy to say that now. Who missed a clear chance in the first half of the semi-final? Garnacho. That’s football.”

What did Garnacho’s brother say?

Tensions between the two parties are clearly inflamed and the situation will not have been helped by Garnacho’s brother and agent, Robert, who took to Instagram to express his perspective on the situation.

“Working like no one else, helping in every game, scoring two goals in the last two finals, only to be on the pitch for 19 minutes and get thrown under a bus. Wow!” he posted.

This is not the first time that Amorim and Garnacho have fallen out. The pair clashed in December prior to the Manchester derby, which was more infamous for prompting Marcus Rashford’s exit from the club.

Garnacho may have managed to hang on a little longer, but this latest war with Amorim will only spark transfer speculation once again. During January, he was linked to both Atletico Madrid and Chelsea.
