In an attempt to actively find new personnel to strengthen the squad, especially in the attacking position, after the duo Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio left due to the end of the loan contract, the Aston Villa Club was given attention to Alejandro Garnacho, Manchester United 21 -year -old midfielder.
According to the information of The Times (UK), the Aston Villa Club has shown interest in Garnacho and is considering sending an official offer in this summer transfer window.
The sources said the Villa Park team saw Garnacho as an important contract to enhance the squad, especially when they aim to win tickets to the Champions League next season. Coach Unai Emery believes that Garnacho's direct play style will match Villa's attack system.

In the context of Garnacho, it is said to be not in the plan of coach Ruben Amorim at Manchester United, especially after he expressed his dissatisfaction about the amount of play, including being on the bench in the Europa League final against Tottenham, an Argentine star transfer to Aston Villa would be likely to occur.
The Man United Club initially valued Garnacho about £ 70 million, but recently decreased to about 45-50 million pounds due to the tense relationship between the player and the club.
