  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Garnacho was approached by the supporter after Sunday's FA Cup exit to Fulham at Old Trafford. The United forward was seen scrolling on his phone in the front seat of his Range Rover, worth around £120,000, before driving off without acknowledging the autograph hunter - as per The Daily Mail.

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Garnacho has divided opinion among United fans amid the club's dismal 2024-25 campaign, but has scored seven goals while creating another six in 41 appearances across all competitions. In January, there were several stories linking him with a move to Napoli and Chelsea, and it has been reported United could invite offers for the academy graduate again this summer.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Garnacho was invovled in a flashpoint with United fans in November, when he refused to celebrate his goal against Leicester at Old Trafford having been goaded by a fan before a game with PAOK days earlier. The fan said to Garnacho, "Pass better today, score a goal and work on your touch as well, yeah?" Garnacho walked away and replied, "Why are you not playing man?"
