Manchester United is taking bold steps in the transfer market when proposing human exchange deals, in the context of financial barriers from the Premier League profit and sustainability (PSR).
Mu Change Alejandro Garnacho took a new number 9
According to The Independent, the Old Trafford team contacted Aston Villa to discuss the ability to exchange between Alejandro Garnacho and Ollie Watkins. Despite being bold to bring Maheus Cunha from Wolves and Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford, coach Ruben Amorim was still not satisfied with the current attack, especially when the team lacked a true number 9.
Watkins has reached the sight, but the price of 60 million pounds that the Villa Park team offered made Man United falter, especially when the striker would turn 30 this year. “Red Devils” are only ready to spend from 40 to 45 million pounds for this deal. Therefore, the plan to put Garnacho into a part of the exchange is considered a solution to help Man United both strengthen the force and circumvent the PSR law.

However, Aston Villa is still determined to keep Watkins, despite the fascinating offers.
Not stopping there, Man United also reputation with Chelsea for a similar option: exchanging Garnacho to take Nicolas Jackson, who is facing the risk of leaving Stamford Bridge after Chelsea recruit two rookies in attack, Liam Delap and Joao Pedro. The Blues was interested in Garnacho, but the price of the Argentine striker was £ 30 million, much lower than the value they wanted to receive from Jackson.
Therefore, the possibility of a direct exchange between Garnacho and Jackson is almost excluded.
The sale of Garnacho will help the “Red Devils” record 100% profit in the book as prescribed by PSR. However, the story is not simple, because finding appropriate partners and meeting the financial and professional conditions is a problem that makes Man United leadership headache.
