Alejandro Garnacho, a rising star for Manchester United, has entered an elite group of players whose ultimate sale might net the club milliоns. One of the pleasures of a disappointing season has been Garnacho’s incredible breakthrough under Erik ten Hag.

Over the past year, the Argentine has established himself as a key member of the first squad. Days after the Dutchman’s hiring was finalized, he caught Ten Hag’s notice with a game-winning effort in the 2022 FA Youth Cup final.

Since then, Garnacho has become an integral part of Ten Hag’s first team, starting 39 games and scoring five goals for the United manager. The Red Devils stand to gain a substantial money if the 19-year-old is ever sold.

Garnacho has become one of the game’s finest players, according to transfermarkt.com. One of the most valuable Premier League adolescents in 2023 was the former Atletico Madrid prоspect.

His current site valuation is £21.73 million, an increase of $17.38 million from his value at same time last year. The only player whose worth has increased higher is Evan Ferguson, a striker for Brighton who has been linked to United.

It demonstrates Garnacho’s meteoric ascent over the past year. After struggling to win Ten Hag over, he started seeing more first-team action in the months leading up to the 2022 Winter Olympics.

Before domestic football was put on hold for the tournament in Qatar, he scored the game-winning goal in a Premier League match against Fulham. He scored four more goals for the team last season and had one disallowed for offside against Arsenal earlier this month.

Despite Garnacho’s strong start to the season, the United benched him in their baffling 1-0 victory over Burnley on Saturday. Keeping the Red Devils’ ‘organisation’ in tact was more important, according to Ten Hag, thus the kid was not called upon.

“He (Garnacho) was in against Munich and I thought our team was playing very well,” Ten Hag remarked. “so I wouldn’t change that tonight because this game was a demand to keep that organization.” This is why I refuse to alter my ways.

Even though the score was 1-0, I could tell the guys’ confidence, focus, and drive were all still there. I wouldn’t change it because I know that Burnley scored at one instant and had another goal disallowed at a time when the odds were stacked against us.

I won’t claim to know if this is the best or worst course of action, but there was another crucial point when luck was not on our favor. I wаnted to avoid it by retaining this effective staff.
