Manchester United are reportedly listening to offers to sell one Old Trafford star who Ruben Amorim wants out.
Man Utd come from behind to beat Ipswich Town
The Red Devils secured a much-needed Premier League win over relegation-threatened Ipswich Town at Old Trafford on Wednesday evening, despite having 10 men for more than half of the game.
United came from behind thanks to an own goal from Sam Morsy and defenders Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Maguire getting on the scoresheet to win 3-2.
January signing Patrick Dorgu received a red card shortly before half time, which resulted in Amorim bringing on Noussair Mazraoui in place of Alejandro Garnacho to keep a back five in place.
However, Garnacho wasn’t thrilled at the decision and went straight down the tunnel, with Amorim admitting after the game that he would speak to the Argentine following his actions.
“You are making a connection with Rashford, right? I know, I know. What I’m saying is that I’m obviously going to talk with Garnacho about that. So I will probably talk about that if you want in the next press conference.
“The thinking was we’d play more in the 5-3-1. I know that is a risk because you are taking maybe the only player who has one-against-one pace but I felt the team was OK in the controlling of the game, almost at half-time.
“Then you make the substitution. We have to choose someone to go out, we have to think about set pieces also, so it was my choice.”

Ratcliffe determined to sign £86m “best striker in the world” for Man Utd
The Man United co-owner has set his sights on a prolific forward, who joins the likes of Victor Osimhen and Viktor Gyokeres on the list of targets.
Garnacho, on £50,000-a-week, had been linked with an Old Trafford exit in January, with Chelsea showing a strong interest in signing the forward.
However, a move failed to materialise, but it looks as if a move away from Manchester or Garnacho is still on the cards in 2025.
Amorim wants Garnacho out of Man Utd with Red Devils listening to offers
As per a report from Spain, Amorim wants Man Utd to sell Garnacho due to his attitude. It is claimed that ‘the controversies surrounding him have deteriorated his relationship with the coaching staff’, and that a ‘lack of discipline and some controversial episodes have exhausted the patience of the board’, who are already ‘listening to offers’ for the 20-year-old.
Serie A side Napoli are emerging as a destination for Garnacho, with the Italians seeing the forward as someone who can add speed and talent to their squad.
It remains to be seen how much the Red Devils will demand for the Argentine attacker, but it does look as if his days in Manchester could be numbered, making this one to keep an eye on over the coming months.
