Manchester United ready to hand club record contract to Alejandro Garnacho

According to the Mirror, Manchester United are ready to hand the longest contract ever rolled out by the club to talented Argentine wonderkid Alejandro Garnacho.

Garnacho who is having a breakout season with Man United this season is in talks with the club to extend his contract. He is expected to have a great future in the game and is expected to be the poster boy for Man United.

The talented Argentine is prodigiously talented and has taken to the Premier League like he was born to play here. Garnacho seems absolutely unfazed by the top flight and his performances have been so good.

Despite coming on in the 72nd minute, no Manchester United player had more touches in the opposition box than Alejandro Garnacho against Man City (5).

Garnacho is the future of the club without any doubt. However, he also seems to be the present for the club. The kind of backing that Erik ten Hag has offered to the youngster is a reflection of the potential that he has.

Slowly yet surely, the 18-year-old has gotten past the talented Anthony Elanga in the pecking order with the Swedish winger’s future now seeming uncertain. A case can be made that Garnacho is ahead of Jadon Sancho too.

Manchester United are lining up a sensational contract for the teenager. They are planning to hand him a club-record 8-year deal that will keep him at the club into the next decade and well into his 20s and in the prime of his career.

Anyone who has seen Garnacho play will know how quick he is off the blocks. He is very good going forward and has the skill to succeed and get past players. He also has shown quite a few times that he can pick the right pass.

Slowly yet surely, Garnacho will establish himself as a starter in the team. He is bound to be a huge success in the game but he needs to have the right attitude and show the right mindset.
