admin Manchester United starlet Alejandro Garnacho could be in for quite the reward from the Red Devils hierarchy if his brother’s social media activity is anything to go by.
Alejandro Garnacho’s brother has caused a stir among some Manchester United fans after he hinted on Twitter that the Red Devils youngster could soon be the club’s new number seven.
The Argentine player, number, made his debut for the club just over a year ago but now it looks like Garnacho will be handed the most iconic number in United history, according to Manchester Evening News. The top of the club hierarchy are seriously considering rewarding the winger with a jersey for his performances.
Garnacho made 34 senior appearances in all competitions last season. In the same period, he managed to score six goals and provide six assists, which paved his way into the hearts of Old Trafford fans.
No United player has worn a shirt number since Cristiano Ronaldo’s controversial departure late last year. If Garnacho were given a new shirt number, he would be the first teenager since Ronaldo when he joined the club two decades ago.
Your brother’s Twitter activity seems to indicate that this is a real possibility.Roberto Garnacho has uploaded a photo of his brothers wearing United shirts with the number seven on the back instead of the current number 47.Previous tenants ofinclude Antonio Valencia and the less fortunate Angel Di Maria, who lasted only one season before joining Paris Saint-Germain.
Should Garnacho wear this shirt next season, it would come as a shock considering Jadon Sancho has twice promised a number seven shirt.first came when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was still at the helm trying to convince Sancho to leave Borussia Dortmund for United in 2020.
The Norwegian reportedly used the number seven as a possible bargaining chip, but ended up staying in Germany for another year.
A year later when Sancho arrived he was forced to adopt the number 25 as his former teammate Edinson Cavani refused to trade him. Note that the Uruguay international passed him on Ronaldo’s return.
It looks likeSancho will once again be missed by talented teenager Garnacho, who is held in high esteem by program leaders at United., so much so that he’s also been handed a new contract, tying him to Old Trafford until the summer of 2026.
