”Alejandro Garnacho’s dream is to play for Real Madrid. Not now, but that statement clearly defines his career development goal of wearing the jersey of the team from the Bernabeu,” revealed Gaston Edul, a journalist for TyC Sports.
Meanwhile, Defcentral reports that Real Madrid President Florentino Perez is quite impressed with Garnacho. The head of the Madrid-based club wants to meet the young talent from Argentina when he visits Manchester on April 17th.
Garnacho seems to be inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo. However, the 2004-born player still has a long way to go to reach the level of his Portuguese idol. Ronaldo was already a world-class superstar with Champions League, Premier League, and Ballon d’Or titles when he joined Real Madrid.
Manchester United recruited Garnacho for just over £400,000. The player with Spanish and Argentine heritage quickly showcased his talent and became a key attacking player for Manchester United.
In this season, Garnacho has contributed 11 goals (8 goals, 3 assists) across all competitions and is among the top-performing teenage players in Europe. The Argentine international possesses speed and physical strength but needs to improve his decision-making and finishing abilities. Under the guidance of coach Erik ten Hag, Garnacho has plenty of time and conditions to further develop himself in the future.
