After a dismal season, it became evident that Ruben Amorim needed to overhaul his United squad to spark a revival. ..Continue Reading
United’s forward line has seen major reinforcements since the campaign ended, with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha arriving to inject energy and productivity.
At the same time, Marcus Rashford has joined Barcelona on a loan deal, signaling Amorim may not view the homegrown talent as part of his long-term plans—and a full departure next summer is likely.
Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, and Antony also face uncertain futures at Old Trafford, with departures—either temporary or permanent—still a possibility before the new season kicks off.
Romano reports via X that Garnacho has now prioritized Chelsea in transfer talks, putting the London club at the top of his list this summer.
Valued at £40 million, Garnacho is widely recognized for his high ceiling, and earlier this year, ex-Barcelona striker Javier Saviola praised his immense potential.
“He has a lot of personality, he doesn’t give up and he’s always on the ball. He never gives up in one-on-one situations. Now he’s adding goals to his game, something he was lacking a bit before, and he’s appearing closer to the box.”
Although Garnacho undeniably possesses natural ability, being a top-level footballer involves more than just skill—and his behavior has raised eyebrows at times, which could be one reason Manchester United are open to parting ways with him, as noted by @UtdFaithfuls.
Additionally, with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha expected to walk straight into starting roles in the wide or attacking midfield positions, Garnacho might struggle to secure regular game time at Old Trafford.
In the end, while there’s a definite gamble in selling Garnacho to a direct Premier League competitor, United have to adopt a no-nonsense approach this summer.
If Ruben Amorim has concerns about his attitude or doesn’t see him as a key figure moving forward, cashing in while interest is high would be a smart call.
