Alejandro Garnacho scored United’s winning goal against Fulham and earns a spot in Ten Hag’s eleven
Alejandro Garnacho is the man of the moment in Manchester’s red zone. This Sunday he donated the three points to the ‘Red Devils’ against Fulham at Craven Cottage and he always enjoys a bigger role in Erik Ten Hag’s plans.
Garnacho, from a Spanish father and an Argentinian mother, started his career in the lower divisions of Getafe and Atlético de Madrid until he received an irresistible offer from Manchester United in 2020. His good role in youth, winning an FA Youth Cup against Nottingham Forest, earned him recognition as the best under-18 player of the season.
Born in Madrid on July 1, 2004, the Spanish-Argentinian made his debut with the Spain under-17 team, but ultimately chose to represent the albiceleste. He is a regular in the under-20s, scoring four goals in four games, and was called up by Lionel Scaloni for Qatar’s March World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Ecuador.
Garnacho made his debut against Chelsea on April 28, 2022, although this season is undoubtedly his initiation. The young winger’s speed, eye for goal and brutality has made him an idol for the Old Trafford parish and is breaking all records: in the Europa League, he was the youngest foreign player to score in European competitions with United and in the Premier League. League, he became the first footballer to score a double assist in the same match.
Despite the rumors that placed the Argentinian pearl in the Qatar World Cup squad, Scaloni decided to use Messi, Dybala, Di María, Nico González, Joaquín Correa, Lautaro Martínez and Julián Álvarez as attackers, something that worries Ten Hag . The Dutch coach, who is “very happy with his progress”, fears that the inactivity due to the World Cup will reduce his performance. “There’s a four-week break and it’s a danger for him because he’s in a good dynamic right now. We’ll see how it comes back. We will have to deal with it, although his energy is good and I am sure he will continue to make an impact,” he said.
Given the interest of several European clubs, the ‘red’ directive is trying to protect one of its jewels. The winger, who is lucky enough to share a dressing room with Cristiano in the club and Messi in the national team, is called to lead the project that will return Manchester United to national and European glory. The future is in your shoes.
