“I really don’t want him to leave but Ruben Amorim don’t want him anymore and I can’t oppose that”: Manchester United’s owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is not happy £87million United’s player is leaving the club
Manchester United will face Brighton today afternoon and it will be intriguing to see if Alejandro Garnacho makes the starting XI considering his future at Old Trafford is uncertain.
Reports in the media have heavily linked the Argentine international with Serie A giants, Napoli.
Now, as per Tutto Sport (via Napoli Magazine) Garnacho has agreed a deal over personal terms to join Napoli in the winter transfer window.
The renowned Italian media outlet have stated that the South American star has agreed a contract in principle that will make him earn £12.6million, 15 million euros net, in the next five years.
As far as the transfer fee is concerned, thus far, the Naples club have offered 55 million euros for the 20-year-old, but Man Utd are demanding a price worth £59million (70 million euros).
The Diego Armando Maradona outfit defeated title rivals Atalanta in their own backyard yesterday to extend the lead at the top of the Serie A table.
Garnacho can effectively feature on either flank and even through the center and Antonio Conte would benefit from the versatility of the La Albiceleste attacker.
His form of late in England has been average. The youngster has only netted a single goal in his last ten Premier League appearances for Man Utd.
Therefore, Ruben Amorim clearly believes that he needs a better player than the Argentine for the position, someone who is much more suited to his 3-4-2-1 system.
Have your say – Who should Man Utd sign as a replacement should Garnacho seals the deal and joins Napoli this month?
