For at least a year now Alejandro Garnacho has become an immovable piece on the chessboard of Manchester Unitedat least while Erik ten Hag was in command. Now with his farewell and the imminent arrival of Ruben Amorim, the hierarchies will be undermined and everyone will be examined under the microscope by the 39-year-old Portuguese coach. In the meantime, however, the left wing of the Red Devils gained another satisfaction by receiving the confirmation call to attend the commitments of the Argentine national team.
In view of the new double qualifying round for the 2026 World Cup, in which theAlbiceleste will face Paraguay and Peru, the class of 2004 took a moment to look back at the first steps with Argentina: “The first few times it was a little more difficult for me. It’s always difficult to adapt when you’re new. But the truth is that the locals treated me very well from the beginning. Now I feel at ease” , he declared to the official website of the Red Devils.
In this sense, he stated that “little by little” he is trying to “add minutes and help” and assured that he is “very anxious to be able to try to win with the national team too”. Especially after enjoying the Copa America in the United States in the summer. “It’s a lot of pressure because it’s a very big national team. They’ve won two Copa Americas, the World Cup…. It’s a pressure to play there, but when I’m on the pitch I forget about it. I try to do what I know how to do. I’m done like this”, he comments.
