Man Utd slash Alejandro Garnacho asking price ahead of potential summer transfer window fire sale

Garnacho has been linked with a potential exit since the start of the season, as the Argentine winger has struggled for form under both Erik Ten Hag and Ruben Amorim. The Red Devils have struggled themselves, however, the board is opting to give Amorim his preferred squad for next season, and as such, they are considering making a fire sale in the summer.

Reports have suggested that United want to give Amorim a transfer budget of around £200 million this summer, and to achieve that budget, they will have to make a number of sales at slashed prices. As per Tutto Mercato’s Niccolo Ceccarini, the Red Devils have slashed their asking price for Garnacho from €60 million (£51.6m/$67.8m) to €45 million (£38.7m/$50.8m) for this summer.

Napoli had been interested in signing Garnacho since last summer, however, a move never came to fruition as United preferred to keep the Argentine at Old Trafford. However, with the 20-time Premier League champions now potentially open to selling the 20-year-old, Gli Azzurri could be free to strike a deal for the winger.

Despite his lack of form, Garnacho will continue on as a regular for Amorim in the squad, as the entire squad has struggled since the Portuguese boss' arrival, and he will not be keen on trying new combinations when United take on Lyon in the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final clash.
