A highly-regarded breakthrough talent at Premier League giants Manchester United has his sights set firmly on a future move to Spain, with Real Madrid.
That’s according to the reliable Gastón Edul of Argentine outlet TyC Sports, who confirmed the news late on Tuesday night.
The player with his heart set on a move to the Santiago Bernabéu? Alejandro Garnacho.
Wide-man Garnacho is of course widely considered to be one of the standout young talents in England.
After first bursting onto the scene with the aforementioned Man United last season, the Argentine international has since gone on to establish himself as a near ever-present in Erik ten Hag’s Red Devils XI.
All told, across the campaign to date, Garnacho has racked up 38 appearances, giving rise to a none-too-shabby seven goals and four assists.
Still just 19, it is therefore not difficult to see why a number of European football’s top clubs are understood to be keeping a close eye on the explosive attacker’s development.
And yet, as alluded to above, one club in particular could well hold a trump card when it comes to a future swoop for Garnacho’s services.
As per the aforementioned Gastón Edul, in news since relaid by South American football experts Sudanalytics, the player himself ‘dreams’ of one day pulling on the colours of Real Madrid.
Though it is understood that Garnacho is keen to continue his development at Old Trafford, at some point down the line, he is eager to seal a move to Spain’s capital, a switch which would see the youngster follow in the footsteps of personal idol and Blancos legend Cristiano Ronaldo.
