Manchester United offer Alejandro Garnacho just £20,000-a-week despite Real Madrid interest

have offered a weekly salary of just £20,000-a-week, despite interest in the midfielder from and .

The 18-year-old has burst onto the scene this season and he set-up Marcus Rashford’s winner in the Manchester derby on Saturday.

Garnacho joined United from Atletico Madrid for a fee of around £160,000 in 2020 but he’s out of contract in 18 months’ time.

The Argentine earns around £5,000-a-week at Old Trafford and United have offered to quadruple Garnacho’s salary, putting him on wages of £20,000-a-week.

However, this falls well short of the demands put on the table by Garnacho’s representatives, who were looking for a figure closer to £50,000-a-week.

With just 18 months to run on Garnacho’s deal and 12 months until Garnacho can sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs, United risk losing one of the most sought-after talents in world football.

Real Madrid are looking to freshen up their frontline and Madrid-born Garnacho would be open to returning to Spain during his career.

Juventus signed Paul Pogba from United in 2012 on a free transfer before selling him back to the Red Devils for £89m four years later.

The Italians know the value of securing young talent and could provide Garnacho with a greater assurance of first-team football.
