Ruben Amorim has said Alejandro Garnacho is “improving in every aspect of the game” amid speculation over his Manchester United future.
The Argentina international played the full 90 minutes as United defeated Rangers 2-1 in the Europa League on Thursday, a week after Napoli approached United over his availability — an offer which was not entertained by United.
Chelsea have also made an enquiry over the 20-year-old, who United would reluctantly consider selling as part of their efforts to comply with football’s financial rules.
The club are not actively looking to sanction the exit of Garnacho but the reality of their situation means the possibility cannot be discounted if suitable offers arrive.

“I think he’s improving in every aspect of the game,” Amorim said after the game against Rangers.
“He was better today playing inside, also outside, changing positions, he’s improving the recovering position. You can see it until 90 minutes he’s always there recovering and helping, sometimes showing some frustration and that is good because he wants more.
“I think he has potential to be so much better in every situation in the game. What I can say is he understood what I was trying to do, was really clear, I just want to help them but in the end it’s them that do the job.”
United are next in action on Sunday with a trip to Fulham in the Premier League.
