Manchester United are confident they will secure a ‘huge’ new deal for Alejandro Garnacho, according to Graeme Bailey.
The Lowdown: Fulham winner
The Red Devils gem has enjoyed a fine month at Old Trafford, which began by scoring the winner against Real Sociedad in the Europa League. The 18-year-old then registered two assists against Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup before netting a dramatic stoppage time winner against Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday.
He has been a hot topic of conversation in Manchester in recent weeks as a result of his fine form, and it looks as if a new contract could be on the horizon.
The Latest: Garnacho contract update
Bailey took to Twitter on Monday morning to share an update involving Garnacho.
The 90min reporter said that the Red Devils have offered the teenager a ‘huge new deal, amid interest from across Europe’. Bailey added that ‘United are calm and believe that he will sign very soon’.

Therefore, a fresh long-term contract would be exciting news for all involved, especially after recent links of a move to Barcelona.
Hopefully a deal can be finalised prior to the New Year, which will allow the young forward to focus entirely on becoming a regular in Ten Hag’s first-choice XI in 2023.
