With the Bryan Mbeumo deal now sealed, Manchester United’s focus has now shifted to player sales.
Marcus Rashford has already earned a loan move to Barcelona, while Jadon Sancho seems to be inching closer to Juventus.
Both those deals will not net the Red Devils a huge amount, with Alejandro Garnacho earmarked as the biggest sale this window.
Unlike his fellow forwards, the Argentine is keen to stay in the Premier League and he has already turned down a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, where he was offered the chance to reunite with idol Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.
Napoli, Atletico Madrid were also linked with a move, but the United No.17 is hoping to stay in England with Chelsea long-term admirers.
Garnacho wants PL stay
But so far, the Blues have yet to submit a concrete proposal, while Tottenham Hotspur have also been linked with a move.
Aston Villa are the latest entrants, with recent reports suggesting Unai Emery’s side could offer a loan deal, something the 20-time English league champions are likely to reject.
TBR Football have claimed the Argentina international has done his homework on Villa, and feels Emery can get the best out of him.
The Spaniard has a proven track record with young stars, while he also got a tune out of Marcus Rashford last season, which even saw the Mancunian regain his spot in the England national team.
“Garnacho is keen to stay in the Premier League and, attracted by the prospect of working under Unai Emery, would be open to a move to Aston Villa, TBR Football can confirm.
“Alejandro Garnacho wants to stay in England, and there are only so many options. Chelsea, we know, like him, whilst Tottenham have maintained contact.
Open to Villa move
“But Aston Villa have emerged as an option, I am told the player has done his homework on the possibility of working with Unai Emery, and he has heard good things.
“Emery knows how to get a tune out of these young talents – we have seen it with the likes of Morgan Rogers, indeed, could Garnacho replace the England man? It is not impossible.
“Villa want to make some impact on the market this summer, and Garnacho could be just that for them.”
Alejandro Garnacho was even spotted wearing a Villa kit, not too long ago, and he could soon follow in Rashford’s footsteps.
However, a lot will depend on the kind of deal the Birmingham side end up offering. They are not in the best position, financially, but with United’s eyes on Emiliano Martinez, a cash-plus player deal could be on the cards.
