Official! Garnacho over the moon as Argentine escapes Ruben Amorim | OneFootball

It's official! Alejandro Garnacho is joining Chelsea. The Argentine forward is leaving Manchester United in a deal that sees €46.2 million entering the coffers of Old Trafford, where he was seen as one of the biggest promises for the club's future. However, his potential never fully materialized.

The arrival of Ruben Amorim - who assumed the possibility of strengthening Benfica - at Manchester United also didn't help the equation. The Portuguese coach was quick to criticize the Argentine winger, especially his work ethic. The pair had a falling out, and the situation was only resolved with the move to the English capital, where he will join the blues for about €45 million.

Alejandro Garnacho took to social media to write a farewell message, addressed to Man United fans: "Dear Manchester, after five unforgettable years, this special chapter of my life comes to an end. We created moments that will stay with me forever, and I am very grateful for that".

"To the coaches, staff, and teammates, thank you for believing in me. Every time I wore the jersey, I gave it my all", Garnacho added, as a caption accompanying a video with some of his best moments in Manchester.

The Argentine winger then concluded: "I leave proud of what we achieved together and excited about what's to come. I wish the club nothing but success in the future, while I eagerly look forward to giving my best in the next chapter of my career".
