Manchester United Includes Garnacho in Asia Tour Amid Exit Discussions

Alejandro Garnacho has been included in Manchester United's post-season tour of Asia despite being omitted from the final Premier League match against Aston Villa due to frustration over his benching in the Europa League final loss to Tottenham. The 20-year-old is expected to leave the club this summer if a reasonable offer is received, with prior interest from Napoli and Chelsea, and talks between his representatives and United are imminent. Ruben Amorim, Manchester United's head coach, has maintained that Garnacho remains a club player for now and is likely to travel with the team, though his future remains uncertain amid tensions. Garnacho's actions after the Villa match, including lingering on the pitch, suggest he is coming to terms with a probable departure, which United sees as an opportunity for profit in a season without European football. Other players like André Onana and Luke Shaw were also left out of the Villa game but traveled on the tour, while several key players are sidelined with injuries. Amorim also reassured fans that captain Bruno Fernandes intends to stay, emphasizing the club's commitment to change and improvement under his leadership.
