Manchester United fans are buzzing with excitement after Alejandro Garnacho's latest social media activity sparked fresh speculation about a potential move for Lionel Messi.
The young Argentine winger liked an edited image on Instagram showing Messi in a United shirt alongside him, sending the Red Devils' faithful into overdrive.
Garnacho Fuels Messi to Man Utd Speculation
The 19-year-old's social media interaction has reignited rumours about United's interest in the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner, despite Messi currently playing for Inter Miami in MLS.
While a move seems unlikely given Messi's commitment to David Beckham's franchise, Garnacho's apparent endorsement has given United supporters hope of seeing two generations of Argentine talent unite at Old Trafford.
Chelsea Also Linked with Shock Move
Interestingly, Chelsea have also been mentioned as potential suitors for Messi, with reports suggesting the Blues could make an ambitious approach for the World Cup winner.
However, United's existing Argentine connection through Garnacho and Lisandro Martinez might give them an edge in any potential pursuit of the legendary forward.
Why This Transfer Rumour Persists
- Messi's contract with Inter Miami includes an option to leave after 2025
- United's long-standing admiration for the Argentine maestro
- Garnacho's public admiration for his compatriot
- The commercial appeal of bringing Messi to the Premier League
While football purists might dismiss the speculation as fanciful, the combination of Garnacho's social media activity and United's global ambitions makes this a story worth watching as the transfer window approaches.
