The winger vented his frustration at being benched in United’s Europa League final loss to Spurs last week.

And Ruben Amorim is believed to have told the 20-year-old Argentine

The under-fire manager offered to walk away without any compensation

But, the Old Trafford hierarchy are believed to be behind Amorim – who replaced Erik ten Hag in November.

According toThe Athletic, Amorim addressed players at the club’s Carrington training ground on Saturday to inform them of his own plans.

And it was there that Garnacho is said to have been told to find a new team

He was left out of the starting XI that was beaten by – despite starting in ten of their matches in the European campaign.

United’s defeat in Spain – while sitting 16th in the Premier League – caps off a horror season.

And Garnacho told Argentine press in Bilbao: “It’s hard for everyone.

“The season was s***, both now losing the final tonight, and in the league, where we didn’t beat anyone, that’s the truth.

“Up until the final, I’ve played every round, and today to play 20 minutes... I don’t know. I’m going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens after.”;;

He posted a picture of a dejected Garnacho and wrote: “Working as no one else, helping every round, coming from two goals in the last two finals, just to be on the pitch for 19 mins and get thrown under the bus.”;;

And now Garnacho’s girlfriend Eva appears to have confirmed his exit by posting their son Enzo’s United kit with the caption: “Last match.”;;

She accompanied it with a crying and love heart emoji.

Garnacho was benched against Spurs with Mason Mount and Amad Diallo operating as forwards.

Amorim was probed on his decision to leave Garnacho out for Mount, to which he replied: “It’s easy to say that now.

“Who missed the big opportunity in the first half in the semi-final? Garnacho. Football is like that.”;;

Garnacho, 20, has played 58 times this season across all competitions, more than any other United player.

He has 11 goals to his name and remains linked with a move away from Old Trafford, with Chelsea showing interest in January.

Bruno Fernandes has alsobut United will not want to offload their skipper.

Other players such asand Antony, who have been on loan atand Real Betis respectively, will also be sold in what is likely to be a turbulent summer at.

Amorim was asked in his final pre-match press conference of the season whether he has sought to clarify Fernandes and Garnacho’s futures.

And he said: “I will speak with my players but my focus is the last game. I don’t know what is going to happen.

“We have a plan — we were prepared for both situations, with or without Champions League.

“We have an idea what type of squad we want. Now we have to focus on the game, we now have the last game and we have time to address those situations.”;;

Onana meanwhile joined in 2023 in a £47.5m deal from Inter Milan after David de Gea left on a free.

But he has suffered inconsistent form in Manchester with a string of howlers – leaving a move to Saudi Arabia on the card.
