In the clearest signal yet that Alejandro Garnacho’s future lies away from Old Trafford, Manchester United have officially excluded the young forward from their squad for the upcoming pre-season tour.
This decision comes just days after it was reported that Garnacho’s chapter at the club was “closed” and that he was seeking a move to another Premier League team. Excluding a player from the pre-season tour is a standard practice for clubs looking to facilitate a sale, as it prevents potential injuries and allows the player to finalize negotiations with interested parties.
This move sends a clear message to potential suitors that Garnacho is available for transfer and will likely accelerate talks between his representatives and other Premier League clubs.
The question is no longer if Garnacho will leave Manchester United, but rather where his next destination will be. His departure from the club now seems to be an imminent reality, pending an official announcement.
