No Napoli Move for Garnacho, Club Not in Talks Despite Rumors

Despite new talk about Alejandro Garnacho going to Napoli, club officials say there have been no statements or talks about the Manchester United winger right now.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Reports came out saying Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis praised Garnacho and hinted he might transfer in the summer. But club insiders say De Laurentiis hasn’t said anything publicly or given interviews about Garnacho. Reliable sources confirm Napoli aren’t trying to sign the Argentine winger now, even though they were interested in January and there are still media rumors about a possible £45 million offer.

According to a previous report, Manchester United is looking for a fee of up to £60 million for Alejandro Garnacho.

NAPOLI AND GARNACHO: THE ACTUAL SITUATION

Napoli did show interest in Garnacho earlier this year, but nothing has happened since. The club is getting over a mixed Serie A season after winning the title last year, and they’re focusing on other targets. Garnacho, 21, had a rough end to his time with Manchester United, scoring 11 goals and getting nine assists across all competitions last season. The winger hasn’t come back for pre-season training, and Manchester United are open to selling him, but Napoli aren’t looking to sign him now.

Napoli won the Serie A for the 2024-25 season, according to previous reports.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR GARNACHO AND THE CLUBS?

Manchester United’s pre-season has started, but Garnacho’s future is still up in the air. With Napoli not working on a deal, other Premier League clubs could try to sign him if United look to sell. United’s Premier League season starts in a few weeks, and they want to do better than last year’s fifteenth place.

It has been reported that Manchester United finished fifteenth in the Premier League for the 2024-25 season.

Napoli want to improve their team after winning the Serie A and are getting ready for Champions League qualifiers. Both clubs have important games ahead as they figure out their summer plans and decide on their squads.
