Alejandro Garnacho is one of four Manchester United players who have been told to find new clubs and the Argentine has been linked with a move to Aston Villa - a club where Marcus Rashford had success on loan
Marcus Rashford may have already endorsed Alejandro Garnacho's next club after he sang the praises of Aston Villa following the end of his loan spell last season.
Rashford excelled for Villa on loan from Manchester United for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign as he scored four goals and registered five assists.
The England star became a first team regular under boss Unai Emery and starred in the Champions League for the Midlands club, but was forced to cut his spell short after suffering an injury during their FA Cup semi-final defeat to Manchester City.
Villa ended up deciding not to take up their £40million option to sign Rashford permanently and he has since returned to United to train away from the first team squad - forming part of four players who have been told to find new clubs.
One of those players is Garnacho, who - like Rashford - fell out with manager Ruben Amorim last season.
Garnacho was irked when Amorim dropped him for the Europa League final defeat to Tottenham and suggested he could leave this summer.
And according to the Daily Mail, Villa are now interested in taking Garnacho to Villa Park as a replacement for Rashford - though Chelsea and Tottenham are also keen.
When Rashford left Villa, he waxed lyrical about the support the club had gave him, which appears to be a solid approval for his team-mate Garnacho to follow in his footsteps.
Writing on Instagram after the end of his loan deal in May, he wrote: "Just a message of thanks to everyone here at Villa for what has (injury aside) been an incredible few months for me.
"It is a really special club and I appreciated the way Villa fans embraced me with open arms from 1st minute on the pitch. Manager, team, and coaching staff have all been brilliant.
"I know it is a huge disappointment not to have made the Champions League place which everyone worked so hard all season for but I know this club and team will come back stronger."
Garnacho has played 144 times for United since coming through the youth system in 2021 - scoring 26 goals in that time.
Despite his struggles last season as United finished 15th, Garnacho actually enjoyed arguably his best campaign from a personal standpoint as he scored 11 goals and assisted a further ten.

Because they don’t play champions league this year and don’t want to invest more on players
just say they don't have the money and can't afford to pay his wage demand

Manchester united doesn't know how to discipline young players talk of how to treat them like their own children. that's why things are getting more and more complicated. when they treat those affirmations 5 players in that manner, then it means they're also sending bad signals to other young players from the academy that they would treat them the same way hence , the lads will start playing with fear or rather start running away
