ALEJANDRO Garnacho has refused to sign a new contract with Manchester United amid interest from Real Madrid and Juventus, reports suggest.
Garnacho has been enjoying a breakout season at Old Trafford with two goals and five assists in 15 appearances across all competitions.
According to The Independent, the 18-year-old sensation, who is understood to be on £7,000 per week, was offered a new deal by United worth £20,000 per week.
The young Argentine has become a United regular under Erik ten Hag but is still among the squad’s lowest-paid players.
Garnacho is second from the bottom in the wage bill, with only Anthony Elanga below him making £5,500 per week.
Hannibal Mejbi, who is on loan at Birmingham, earns almost double with a weekly salary of £13,000.
That has led to Juventus and Real keeping tabs on Garnacho, who has 18 months left on his current United contract and has yet to receive any concrete offers from his various suitors.
Juve are looking to update their squad amid a disappointing season that has seen them slump to third place in the Serie A table.
