Alejandro Garnacho staying at Man Utd?! Winger named in starting XI vs Crystal Palace just one day before transfer window shuts in potential blow for Chelsea and Napoli

Premier League

Crystal Palace

Aston Villa

<p>The winger was put up for sale by United at the start of the January transfer window along with fellow youth academy graduate Kobbie Mainoo and Napoli and Chelsea both showed interest in signing him. However, his inclusion in Ruben Amorim's side to face Palace on Sunday would suggest he is not about to make a move, as any potential injury would scupper a transfer were it already far down the line.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Garnacho, 20, is one of the most valuable players in the United squad and the club would reportedly be willing to part with him for £50m ($62m). Napoli are one club who have <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/napoli-confirm-alejandro-garnacho-interest-but-director-insists-serie-a-side-won-t-be-held-to-ransom-on-asking-price-by-man-utd/bltd9eebd8d3f993d03#cs745a3b0946269b43" target="_blank">confirmed their interest in the Argentina international</a> amid their search for a replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia following the Georgian's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain, although Antonio Conte's side have also said they will not be held to ransom.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>United boss Amorim dropped Garnacho from the squad for the Manchester derby in December and criticised his attitude in training but relations between the coach and forward have thawed and the winger has played a key role for the Red Devils within the last month. He set up Amad Diallo's equaliser against Liverpool and Kobbie Mainoo's goal against FCSB. Amorim indicated on Thursday that he wants Garnacho and Mainoo to stay. He said: "I want players like Kobbie and Garnacho. The focus is that we have to improve our academy. And you have to bring more [through]. That is something that all the clubs in England have to take advantage of. The players that come from their academies. To play, to feel the shirt, but also to sell them. So our focus is to bring more [through]."</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>United presented <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-patrick-dorgu-announced-contract-until-2030-wing-back-reveals-ruben-amorim-wish/blt46af3136353e0d92" target="_blank">new signings Patrick Dorgu</a> and Ayden Heaven to fans before the match with Crystal Palace.
