'I don't blame him' - Gabby Agbonlahor tells Alejandro Garnacho to demand Man Utd transfer after young winger aims shot at Ruben Amorim for Europa League final omission

United suffered a disappointing defeat in the Europa League final to Tottenham on Wednesday night, leaving Garnacho frustrated with his lack of playing time. The young winger only came on in the 71st minute, which prompted a social media reaction and fueled speculation about his future at the club. Gabby Agbonlahor has now weighed in, suggesting Garnacho should seek a move away from Old Trafford after the Argentinian's brother fired a thinly-veiled shot at Red Devils manager Ruben Amorim.

Garnacho's frustration comes at a time of uncertainty for United. Without Champions League football next season, United face financial challenges and potential player sales. The club's underwhelming performance in the Europa League final has added to the pressure on Amorim and questions are being asked about his ability to rebuild the team. This environment could make it difficult for Garnacho to thrive and get the opportunities he desires and former Aston Villa striker Agbonlahor admitted he would be looking to leave Old Trafford if he was in the youngster's shoes.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Agbonlahor said: "Garnacho last night, by the way, not happy. He only played 19 minutes. It's on social media. In a press conference afterwards. Is he the guy you want to keep on side or do you need that attitude out of Manchester United? No, I don't blame him. And if I'm Garnacho this morning, I'm on the phone to my agent even last night. Get me out of here."

Garnacho will likely discuss his options with his agent in the coming weeks. United will need to address his concerns and decide whether they can offer him the playing time he desires, while manager Amorim will need to focus on rebuilding the squad without the financial boost of Champions League football and decisions will need to be made on player sales.
