0 goals vs Spurs: £42m Man Utd ace has a point to prove, INEOS considered ‘selling’ him – opinion | OneFootball

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

United head coach 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.

Reports suggested that United considered ‘selling’ Garnacho last month to meet financial fair play regulations.

Napoli reportedly 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.

Despite facing Spurs four times, the 20-year-old has never come out on top.

He has also failed to score or record an assist in these four games.

We believe that the young star has a point to prove on Sunday.

Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou has won both clashes against United this season.

He masterminded a 3-0 demolition of United at Old Trafford.

Postecoglou also knocked out Amorim’s side in the Carabao Cup with a thrilling 4-3 win in December.

The hunger for redemption is palpable, and Garnacho will feel the weight of that desire when he steps onto the pitch.

The £42 million-rated ace 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.
