Marcus Rashford is not the only problem. Alejandro Garnacho, who was excluded from the list, also has a possibility of transfer.

Britain's The Sun reported on the 18th (Korea time) 'Atletico Madrid is watching Garnacho's situation at Manchester United'

Garnacho was one of Manchester United's top prospects. Garnacho, who joined Manchester United's youth team in 2020, is recognized for his enormous potential and entered the Manchester United first team at the age of 18 in 2022.

Garnacho appeared in 84 games in two seasons from the 2022-2023 season to the 2023-2024 season, scoring 15 goals and 9 assists, showing a little growth. Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Antony were considered hopes of a sluggish Manchester United second term.

However, Garnacho is below expectations this season. With eight goals and four assists in 24 games, it is difficult to find a problem at the offensive point, but the influence and performance in the game are too insufficient.

In recent years, he was pointed out by Coach Hoobeng Amorim and was also excluded from the list of derby games against Manchester City. Manager Amorim excluded Rashford and Garnacho from the game against Manchester City, and in an interview after the game, he pointed out that Garnacho showed problems, saying, `Many things are important, including performance in training, performance in games, eating methods, and communication methods.' Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand added "I think there's a problem at the training groundHe evaluated that Garnacho would not have met Amorim's standards at the training ground.

Unlike Rashford, who is likely to sell, Garnacho is widely expected to return to the first team soon, but there were clubs who were paying attention to the gap between Manchester United and Garnacho. It was Atletico, where Garnacho was involved in his youth.

The Sun reportedly decided to remove Garnacho from the list based on training. This has sparked interest from several clubs, especially Atletico, he said, explaining that Atletico are keeping an eye on the situation between Garnacho and Manchester United.

This is not the first time for Manchester United that a coach and a player have decided to part ways over training attitudes. Last season, manager Erik tenhach publicly pointed out Jadon Sancho's training attitude, and Sancho left the team on loan, and Sancho moved to Chelsea in the transfer window last summer. Garnacho could also leave the team similar to Sancho if this situation continues.

Garnacho, who was considered Manchester United's next ace, faced a crisis after being pointed out for training problems. In order to overcome the situation, it is expected to clearly show an attitude and effort that meets Amorim's standards.
