Tottenham join Chelsea and Aston Villa in race for Manchester United outcast

5 hours ago 20

Three Premier League clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, are weighing up a move for a Manchester United outcast, who has been told to find a new club following a fallout at Old Trafford.

Tottenham Hotspur are expected to continue strengthening their squad, even after completing the signings of four players so far in the summer transfer window.

Mohammed Kudus completed his move to N17 on 10 July, while Tottenham also moved swiftly to wrap up a deal for Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White 48 hours later.

However, despite Tottenham having activated Gibbs-White’s £60million release clause, the transfer has been held up due to legal action taken by Forest against the Lilywhites.

Tottenham join race for Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho

Tottenham are still expected to remain active in the current window, with reports suggesting that Spurs are still targeting a midfielder, a forward and a promising young talent.

Reports from the Daily Mail now state that Tottenham are among several clubs monitoring Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho, who is now available for transfer.

The Argentine wide man has reportedly been told to seek a new club after falling out with Ruben Amorim, who dropped him from the Europa League final starting line-up – a decision that sparked an internal altercation.

Still, Tottenham continue to monitor the situation of the young winger who grabbed an impressive 21 goal contributions in 58 appearances, scoring 11 goals and assisting ten times.

Chelsea and Aston Villa are also believed to be assessing whether to make a move for the 21-year-old winger.

Although Garnacho was previously valued at around £70million, it is understood that any buying club would now expect to negotiate a significantly lower fee, following his fallout with Manchester United.

Atletico Madrid have been linked with a return for their former academy prospect, while Manchester United are said to have rejected an offer from Napoli for Garnacho back in January.
