Serie A giants Napoli are reportedly interested in signing 20-year-old Argentine international Alejandro Garnacho, with Manchester United demanding €45 million for him.

According to a report by Il Mattino, as relayed by Calcio Napoli 24, Alejandro Garnacho is the subject of interest from Napoli. The Serie A giants are scouring the market for a productive attacker heading into the summer transfer window and have their sights set on the Manchester United whizkid. Meanwhile, the Argentine international will be available for around €45 million.

Alejandro Garnacho and his journey with Manchester United

Alejandro Garnacho has established himself as one of the best young prospects in the Premier League since breaking into the first-team squad at Manchester United. One of Erik ten Hag’s best contributions to the English giants was grooming highly-rated prodigies into senior stars, with Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo benefitting from his outlook.

The 20-year-old has come leaps and bounds in the last few years but has also been frustrating due to his inconsistent performances in the final third. Nevertheless, Garnacho has managed a decent tally of nine goals and eight assists in 47 appearances across all competitions.

However, the Argentine international faces an uncertain future at Old Trafford, with Manchester United reportedly open to cashing in on him in the summer transfer window. The situation has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe, with Napoli among the prospective suitors vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.

Serie A adventure beckons?

Napoli wanted to sign Alejandro Garnacho in the winter transfer window before the deal failed to see the light of day. The continued interest is understandable, considering Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has left a gaping hole in the offensive unit. So, the Manchester United whizkid has emerged as a viable target for the Partenopei.

The latest update has revealed that the Argentine international will be available for a bargain fee in the summer transfer window, with Manchester United ready to part ways with him for around €45 million.

The asking price of €45 million makes Garnacho an attractive target. Meanwhile, Rio Ferdinand has advised the 20-year-old attacking prospect to leave Manchester United amid his links with Napoli. So, it will be interesting to see if a move to Serie A is on the cards for the highly-rated winger.
