Garnacho is about to leave the team, and many Premier League teams are eyeing each other, Aston Villa becomes the potential next home

On July 16, according to reports from multiple English media, Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho has been clearly informed by the club that he can seek to leave this summer, which has attracted the attention of many Premier League teams. Aston Villa becomes the latest potential suitor to be mentioned.

reported that Garnacho's remarks after the Europa League final in May angered coach Ruben Amorim, and there were even reports that the Argentine teenager was publicly told in front of the entire team that he could find a new owner.

Villa had a deal with Manchester United in January this year to introduce Marcus Rashford on loan, but ultimately did not activate a buyout clause worth £40 million. According to the Daily Mail, Villa has turned his attention to Garnacho due to the failure to find a replacement for Rashford. However, Villa's interest is still in its initial stages, mainly focusing on "focusing on developments".

Ganacho was previously closely connected with Serie A Naples. It is reported that the player himself prefers to stay in England, which is regarded as his "priority" choice, and for this reason he even rejected the invitation to win the Saudi team Riyadh, whom Ronaldo played for.

Chelsea also expressed their interest in Garnacho in January this year. Although the Blues subsequently spent £150 million to introduce several attackers including Jamie Gittens, Joao Pedro, Estewan (Messinho) and Kendri Paes, their interest in Garnacho is said to continue.

At present, Garnacho's situation at Manchester United is quite embarrassing. He was reportedly on the special roster with players such as Rashford, Sancho, Anthony and Maracia, and was allowed to train at the Carrington base only after 5 pm, that is, coach Amorim and other first-team members left the team.

As a successful example of the Premier League in recent years, Aston Villa has rejuvenated under Emery's coaching. Last season (2024-25 season) they returned to the Champions League with a historic return (note: this is their first time since participating in the European Champions League in the early 1980s). In the new season (2025-26 season), Villa, who qualifies as the UEFA Cup as the sixth place in the Premier League, is eager to go further and even looking forward to ending the club's 30-year championship drought. Villa's upward momentum and European war platforms undoubtedly increase their appeal to potential targets.
