Alejandro Garnacho appears to have given up at Manchester United if his appearance for the club on their Malaysian tour is anything to go by.

Garnacho and head coach Ruben Amorim entered a state of open warfare following the Europa League final last week. The Argentine was unhappy that he did not start the match and his brother subsequently posted a pointed message on Instagram about the Portuguese boss.

The 20-year-old has since been placed on the transfer list and looked thoroughly unamused to be signing autographs for fans in Malaysia in a video posted on X.

Sitting next to Manuel Ugarte and Bruno Fernandes, Garnacho looked like he would rather be anywhere else than the post-season trip, which would have been a mentally taxing affair for players at the best of times.

Given the Argentine knows that his future at the club is effectively over, the situation is no doubt frustrating for him, given this is eating in what little holiday time a player at the top of the game can enjoy.

Romano has confirmed Garnacho exit

Football transfer news reporter Fabrizio Romano has previously confirmed that Garnacho will leave Man Utd in the summer, though his destination remains unclear.

“For Garnacho, he’s expected to leave the club. He’s going. Now he’s with the squad for the post-season tour, travelling with the squad. But the expectation is that they will try to find a solution for the player,” Romano told his YouTube channel.

“It’s not Man Utd trying to offload Garnacho, both feel it’s the best time to part ways. So the conversations will continue.

“There was interest from Chelsea and Napoli in January and now I’m told the race is open for other clubs. It’s not just these two.”
