# Manchester United ‘will resume talks’ with Alejandro Garnacho

**[Manchester United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/manchester-united-news/) are set to ‘resume talks’ with youngster [Alejandro Garnacho](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tag/alejandro-garnacho/) regarding a new deal, according to an update from journalist Fabrizio Romano.**

### The Lowdown: Garnacho a special talent

The 18-year-old has burst onto the scene at Old Trafford this season, registering [two goals and assists](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/437022/Show/Alejandro-Garnacho) apiece, including a last-gasp winner away to Fulham in the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/).

Garnacho looks like a special talent judging by his recent performances and he has been [described](https://www.planetfootball.com/quick-reads/alejandro-garnacho-manchester-united-academy-quotes-praised-premier-league/) as ‘amazing’ by former United midfielder Owen Hargreaves.

The Argentine’s current deal [expires](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alejandro-garnacho/profil/spieler/811779) in the summer of 2024, however, and the Red Devils are understandably keen to sort an extension for him.

### The Latest: Talks over deal to ‘resume’

Writing on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1609322714128601088?s=20&t=FLr5ZSfqyvu4KH_dadPWdQ), Romano provided an update on the situation, suggesting things are heading in a positive direction:

> “Manchester United will resume talks to extend Alejandro Garnacho’s contract in the next weeks and months.
>
> “Negotiations have been ongoing for months as Man Utd want Garnacho to be happy with new long term deal and improved salary.”

### The Verdict: Future United superstar?

Tying down Garnacho to a long-term deal has to be considered one of United’s key pieces of business currently, considering what a huge prospect he is.

He possesses a fearlessness and healthy arrogance that the great young players do – Lisandro Martinez has [said](https://www.planetfootball.com/quick-reads/alejandro-garnacho-manchester-united-academy-quotes-praised-premier-league/) he has ‘no ceiling’ – and he already feels like he has become a key part of Erik ten Hag’s squad.

To lose Garnacho now would be an almighty but it feels as though his future belongs at Old Trafford and confirmation of a new deal would be a massive boost.
