Garnacho is regarded as the brightest young prospect to have come through United in recent years. Manchester United have big plans for him and are planning to hand him a bigger role in the first team under new manager Erik Ten Hag. But, before that Manchester United need to resolve Garnacho’s contract situation.
The 17-year-old is entering the final year of his contract with the Red Devils. His contract situation has piqued the interest of several clubs across Europe. Juventus are already planning a Bosman move for the winger in 2023. Real Madrid are also now joining the race for the youngster.
