Per Fabrizio Romano, new Leverkusen boss Ten Hag is interested in signing Garnacho from United this summer and has made an enquiry, with the Red Devils placing the Argentina international on the transfer list. Current head coach Ruben Amorim has reportedly told the winger that he ought to "pray" that he finds a new club, and it appears his hand-clasping may well have paid off.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Garnacho made 98 appearances under Ten Hag during their time together at Old Trafford, scoring 20 goals and registering 15 assists. Leverkusen are not the only club interested, however, with Napoli and Chelsea also in the race to secure his signature.
DID YOU KNOW?
Under Amorim, Garnacho has been far less effective, scoring four times in 40 games, while also registering six assists, but that may be a symptom of just how bad the Red Devils have been. As he himself said, they endured a "sh*t" season, as they finished 15th and lost the Europa League final to Tottenham.

WHAT NEXT?
Garnacho will hope to find a new club as he bids to make a fresh start in his career. He is only 20, so he has plenty of time to resuscitate his reputation.
