Napoli wants to buy Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United for £42 million in January. Their manager, Antonio Conte, sees Garnacho as the best replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who is likely leaving for Paris Saint-Germain.
Kvaratskhelia has asked to be sold, which surprised Conte. He said, “I won’t stop him.” With Kvaratskhelia leaving, Napoli is now focusing on Garnacho. Reports say Manchester United might sell the 20-year-old if they get a good offer.
Garnacho Playing Time
Garnacho has not been starting regularly for United lately, missing five games and not playing in their win against Manchester City in December. Although United’s manager, Ruben Amorim, values him, the club’s financial situation might make it hard to keep him.
Amorim mentioned he wants to keep talented players from their academy, including Garnacho, despite the club’s tough times. He said his goal is to keep the best players who fit their plan.
Even with the transfer rumors, Garnacho played in United’s FA Cup game against Arsenal, showing he is still important to the team.
Napoli sees Garnacho as a direct replacement for Kvaratskhelia, and if Kvaratskhelia moves to PSG, it could speed up Garnacho’s transfer. As January goes on, Manchester United will have to decide whether to keep Garnacho or sell him for a good price to fill other needs.
