Al-Nassr have developed an interest in signing Alejandro Garnacho after former Manchester United player Cristiano Ronaldo demanded that the Saudi Pro League club target the forward.
Garnacho will be allowed to leave Old Trafford this summer after he had a public fallout with United manager Ruben Amorim over being left out of the starting squad for the Europa League final.
Though Bayer Leverkusen and Atletico Madrid are also interested in signing the Argentine international, Ronaldo has ordered Al-Nassr to make a move for the player.
Interestingly, Ronaldo himself is in the midst of talks to renew his contract with the Saudi Arabian side, having gone yet another season without silverware for the club.
According to a report by Fichajes, United are said to be looking for around £50m to £60m for their academy graduate, and Al Nassr’s “almost unlimited financial power” means they could offer close to what United want for Garnacho.
The Red Devils have around £100m to spend before player sales, with any departures set to bolster Ruben Amorim’s funds to sign more stars to fit his system.

Given Garnacho’s fallout with Amorim at United, it’s only a matter of time before he quits the club. A potential reunion with Ronaldo at Al-Nassr cannot be ruled out now as Garnacho idolises the Portuguese superstar.
