Man Utd ace has a point to prove, INEOS considered selling him | OneFootball

Manchester United face Tottenham Hotspur this weekend in a high-stakes Premier League clash.

United manager Ruben Amorim faces the critical task of unlocking his team’s attacking potential.

The departure of Marcus Rashford and Antony has left the squad short of quality and depth.

Rasmus Hojlund, Joshua Zirkzee, Amad Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho are the only senior forwards available.

United reportedly considered ‘selling’ Garnacho last month to comply with Profit and Sustainability Rules.

Napoli made an offer, while Chelsea also kept a close eye on the fiery Argentine talent.

INEOS decided against signing a new forward in the winter transfer window due to budget constraints.

Garnacho has been in lively form recently, helping United turn games around. However, he has never scored against Tottenham and has a point to prove on Sunday.

Spurs have won both clashes against United this season. They triumphed 3-0 in the reverse fixture at Old Trafford and also knocked United out of the Carabao Cup with a thrilling 4-3 win in December.

Garnacho will feel the weight of expectation when he steps onto the pitch. He brings directness and pace into the attack.

Amorim has used him as a super substitute, but he deserves to be part of the starting XI.

With his confidence up, Garnacho must aim to finally register his first direct goal involvement against Spurs.

This is his moment to shine and prove he can lead United in their time of need.
