Atletico Madrid are trying to lure Alejandro Garnacho back to his "old home".

The La Liga club hopes to bring the Spanish player back to the club where he began his career, with the expectation of strengthening their attack for next season.

Despite being one of Manchester United's standout players over the past few seasons, Garnacho was surprisingly left out of the squad by manager Ruben Amorim for the Manchester derby against Manchester City. However, this decision did not have a negative impact, as the Red Devils won 2-1 thanks to late goals from Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo.

Currently, rumors about Garnacho leaving Old Trafford are spreading. According to reports from Fichajes, Atletico's coach Diego Simeone has long admired Garnacho's talent and believes he would be a key factor in overhauling the attack, especially with Antoine Griezmann potentially leaving at the end of the 2024/25 season.

Born in Madrid, Garnacho played for Atletico Madrid's youth team in 2015 before moving to the Manchester United academy in 2020 for a fee of €465,000. This season, the 20-year-old has scored 8 goals and provided 4 assists in 24 appearances across all competitions. Despite a strong start to the season, Garnacho's recent form has declined, leaving his future at Old Trafford uncertain.

If he joins Atletico, it would not only be a homecoming but also an opportunity for Garnacho to prove himself in the colors of another major European club. This decision could open a promising new chapter in the young talent's career, while also helping Atletico refresh their squad during a crucial transitional period.
