Manchester United are bracing for a major shake-up this summer, and it starts with two high-profile omissions. Alejandro Garnacho and André Onana have both been left out of the squad — and their futures at Old Trafford are now firmly up in the air.
Garnacho’s Exit Looking More Likely
After weeks of growing speculation, Alejandro Garnacho now looks set to part ways with Manchester United. The 20-year-old winger, hailed as one of the club’s brightest prospects, could be heading for the exit door after a tense end to the season.
Sources close to the club say both United and Garnacho are now open to a summer separation. Talks have already begun behind the scenes, and interest is building from across Europe.
This isn’t entirely unexpected. Garnacho was already on the radar of several top clubs during the January window, but no deal was finalised. With his stock rising and relationships behind the scenes reportedly strained, especially with manager Rúben Amorim, a move now seems inevitable.
UEL Fallout & Friction with Amorim
The situation reached boiling point after comments made by both Garnacho and Amorim in the aftermath of the Europa League final. While the details remain behind closed doors, it’s clear that the winger’s rapport with Amorim has become tense, if not completely fractured.
With Amorim expected to take over managerial duties, Garnacho’s role in the squad appears uncertain at best. That uncertainty, combined with long-standing interest from other clubs, has laid the groundwork for a summer exit.
Onana Also Facing Uncertain Future
André Onana’s omission from the squad has raised fresh questions over his status at the club. Although not confirmed as a transfer-list candidate yet, sources say his position is “open for discussion” ahead of the summer window.
The Cameroonian shot-stopper has had a mixed debut season at Old Trafford, and while his performances have had bright moments, there remains concern over consistency. United could be assessing alternatives — or simply considering all options in what looks to be a major summer rebuild.
What This Means for United
With Garnacho likely to leave and Onana’s future unclear, Manchester United are entering a critical summer. Fans can expect big decisions, big changes, and possibly a very different squad lining up next season.
The club appears ready to back Amorim with sweeping adjustments — and the Garnacho saga might just be the first domino to fall.
What Comes Next?
- Garnacho’s agents are expected to begin talks with interested clubs once the window officially opens.
- Onana’s situation will be monitored closely over the coming weeks, with United weighing up their goalkeeping options.
- Expect more departures as United undergo what could be one of their busiest transfer windows in recent years.
