Alejandro Garnacho
Alejandro Garnacho Ferreyra (born 1 July 2004) is a professional footballer who plays as a winger for Premier League club Chelsea. Born in Spain, he plays for the Argentina national team.
Garnacho joined Manchester United's youth system from Atlético Madrid in October 2020, winning the FA Youth Cup and the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award in May 2022. The month prior, he had made his first-team debut at the age of 17. He went on to win the EFL Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024, scoring in the latter final. He then signed with Chelsea in 2025.
Garnacho initially went through the youth ranks of Spain, the country of his birth, before making his debut for Argentina at under-20 level in 2022. He made his debut for the senior Argentina team in June 2023, and was a member of the squad that won the 2024 Copa América title.
Born in Madrid, Garnacho joined Atlético Madrid's youth system in 2015 from Getafe.
In October 2020, Garnacho joined the Manchester United Academy. United paid Atlético a £420,000 fee. He signed his first professional contract with the club in July 2021.
Garnacho came under the spotlight for his solo goal in the FA Youth Cup win over Everton, which was nominated for United's Goal of the Month award for February 2022. After being named as an unused substitute for several Premier League matches, Garnacho made his first-team debut for United on 28 April, replacing Anthony Elanga in the 91st minute of a 1–1 draw against Chelsea. Garnacho won the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award in May. He scored twice in the final of the FA Youth Cup against Nottingham Forest on 11 May, helping United win the competition for the first time since 2011.
For the start of the 2022–23 Premier League season, he changed his shirt number from 75 to 49. On 4 October, he scored a late winner for United's U-21 against Barrow in the 2022–23 EFL Trophy. Garnacho made his first senior start for United on 27 October, in a 3–0 win over Moldovan team Sheriff Tiraspol in the UEFA Europa League, whereafter he was praised by manager Erik ten Hag for his improvement over the past few weeks, saying that though previously dissatisfied, he was happy with Garnacho's improved attitude and resilience. On 3 November, he scored his first senior goal in a Europa League match against Real Sociedad with an assist from his idol Cristiano Ronaldo. Garnacho scored his first goal in the Premier League on 13 November, an injury-time winner against Fulham. On 14 January 2023 in the Manchester derby, Garnacho set up Marcus Rashford's 82nd-minute winner in a 2–1 win against Manchester City. On 14 March, Garnacho announced he would be sidelined for several weeks after suffering an ankle ligament injury during a game against Southampton. On 28 April, Garnacho signed a new contract extension that will last until 30 June 2028. On 13 May, Garnacho returned from two months out with injury, scoring the second goal in a 2–0 victory against Wolves.
At the beginning of the 2023–24 Premier League season, Manchester United announced that Garnacho's squad number would be changed from 49 to 17. On 3 September, in a 3–1 away defeat to Arsenal, Garnacho scored in the 88th minute, but the goal was ruled by VAR as offside. Had the goal stood, United would have led 2–1. On 26 November, Garnacho scored his first league goal of the season with a bicycle kick from 15 yards (14 m) out to open the scoring in a 3–0 win over Everton, earning him the Premier League Goal of the Month for November 2023, and eventually the Premier League Goal of the Season and FIFA Puskas Award. Three days later, Garnacho scored his first Champions League goal in a 3–3 away draw against Galatasaray. On 26 December, Garnacho scored two goals in a 3–2 comeback win against Aston Villa. On 4 February 2024, he scored another brace in a 3–0 win over West Ham United. On 4 April, he scored twice once again, this time in a 4–3 away defeat to Chelsea, becoming the first teenager to score multiple braces in three Premier League matches in a single season since Michael Owen in 1998–99. In the FA Cup final on 25 May, Garnacho scored the opening goal in an eventual 2–1 win over Manchester City. His goal in the final was the first for a teenager since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2004, and he also became the second Argentinian to score after Ricardo Villa's brace for Tottenham Hotspur also against City in 1981.
