Including 32G/A French forward: 3 stars who could replace Man Utd ace Alejandro Garnacho this summer
Manchester United could be poised to make a blockbuster decision by offloading star winger Alejandro Garnacho this summer.
The Argentine sensation is the latest name to join the Red Devils’ growing list of player-manager bust-ups.
Head coach Ruben Amorim reportedly told the 20-year-old to find a new club following his explosive outburst after the heartbreak of the Europa League final.
United are reportedly looking for a bid of around £60 million to sanction his exit.
Here we look at three players who could be an ideal replacement for Garnacho.
Rayan Cherki
Cherki has set the transfer rumour mill spinning after confirming his departure from Lyon this summer.
The 21-year-old has turned many heads with his performances, bagging 12 goals and 20 assists in 44 games across all competitions.
Amorim could deploy him as a right-sided number 10, where his slick passing and creative instincts would shine.
With a reported price tag of just £20–25 million, Cherki could prove to be one of the bargains of the summer.
Stepping up from Ligue 1 to the Premier League is a big leap and questions remain over whether he can adapt to England’s high-octane pace and physicality.
Bryan Mbeumo
Bryan Mbeumo is strongly tipped for a move to Old Trafford, even though Brentford are demanding a hefty £50 million to part ways with their star man.
The star forward has enjoyed an excellent campaign with 20 goals and 9 assists.
He previously formed a lethal partnership with Ivan Toney and carried the Bees’ attacking load for this season.
Signing Mbeumo would be an exceptional acquisition for the Red Devils as he possesses lethal pace and tenacity to press from the front.
Not only will he bring goals and assists, but his work ethic and intensity could also raise the bar for United’s underperforming frontline.
Antoine Semenyo
Semenyo earns his spot on this list after a standout season with Bournemouth, where he tallied 13 goals and seven assists in all competitions.
The versatile forward brings tactical flexibility, capable of playing seamlessly on either flank.
Amorim is a keen admirer of the Ghanaian, who boasts a rare ability to strike cleanly with both feet.
Semenyo has a brilliant ability to read the game and win the ball in different areas.
The tricky winger penned a fresh deal with the Cherries last summer, meaning Bournemouth will demand around £65m to let him go.
If United struggle to arrange funds, they can forget about signing Semenyo this summer.
