Alejandro Garnacho ‘drops surprise Manchester United transfer hint’ ahead of summer window

Chelsea and Napoli were interested in Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho during the January transfer window, and he may potentially be getting ready for a summer departure.

After allegedly listing his house for sale, Alejandro Garnacho has stoked rumors that he may be leaving Manchester United during the summer transfer window.

Garnacho may be of interest once more in the summer after being heavily linked to a move to Chelsea or Napoli during the January transfer window.

Ruben Amorim is preparing a significant squad revamp in the summer, and it is understood that sales would be necessary to finance it. The United winger’s contract at Old Trafford is set to expire in June 2028.

Claims that Garnacho has now decided to put his home on the market could suggest that he could be on the move when the summer transfer window opens.

The 20-year-old lives in Bowdon, Greater Manchester, with his partner Eva, their son Enzo and bulldogs Freko and Burrows. He moved into their seven-bedroom mansion in April 2024 after paying £3.804million for the property.

But just a year later, The Sun reports that he is trying to sell it for £3.85m – just £45,000 more than he paid for it.

The listing for the mansion has been spotted by a United supporter, who noted the secretive nature of the advertisement.

The listing has just one picture and the estate agents in charge of finding a buyer say it is being “exclusively and discreetly marketed”.

It went live on March 28, just a few days before Garnacho played for United in their 1-0 defeat by Nottingham Forest after the Premier League returned from the international break.

Like many at United, Garnacho has not fared well this season, having gone 24 games without a goal before the 3-0 win over Leicester prior to the international break.

Yet, although he has managed just four goals and one assist in 29 Premier League games this season, the club are understood to value him at around £70m.

Amorim spoke about Garnacho and fellow youngster Kobbie Mainoo in February amid reports they could be sold in the summer.

“That part [United listening to offers] is true, but I want players like Kobbie and Garnacho. The focus is that we have to improve our academy and you have to bring more through,” he said.

“That is something all the clubs in England have to take advantage of – the players who come from the academy. To play, to fill the shirt and also to be able to sell them. So our focus is to bring more through.”
