Alejandro Garnacho, a young 19-year-old Argentine, is a promising talent for Manchester United on the wings. This season, Garnacho has shown excellent progress carrying the ball, demonstrating agility and drive when moving forward. His chance creation abilities are noteworthy, especially considering his young age. He has a significant propensity for being a goal threat, yet his goal efficiency leaves room for improvement, which might account for his relative youth and lack of experience.
His ability to retain possession is mediocre at best, though this may likely improve with age and experience. The same can be said for his aerial duels and overall dueling percentages, which lay on the lower side. With underwhelming pass accuracy and assisting abilities, Garnacho could benefit from enhancing his vision on the field and his rapport with teammates.
Despite these areas for improvement, Garnacho packs a punch when it comes to shooting, taking considerable chances when offered. He often finds himself in goal scoring positions, nonetheless, he needs to work on his goal conversion rate. While his defending is not particularly strong, it's not an area of serious concern given his primary role as a winger.
Garnacho's youth, and the potential demonstrated in his play, heralds a potentially exciting future for this player as he matures and refines his game.
