Amorim outcast: Nightmare facing former club Sporting, tough match | OneFootball

Alejandro Garnacho confessed that last season was difficult, after having a falling out with Ruben Amorim, the coach who spent almost five years at Sporting. The Argentine international gave an interview to Sports Illustrated where he discussed that complicated period.

“Obviously, in my last season at Manchester United, with the new coach [Ruben Amorim], there were many changes in the situation at the club, and it was a bit difficult,” Alejandro Garnacho began to explain, referring to the time he spent with the former Sporting coach – who is now trying to steal one of the green and white pillars.

The former Manchester United winger went on, noting that he still managed to get some minutes despite his relationship with Ruben Amorim: “I still played in several games last season, mainly starting, or sometimes coming off the bench.”

He transferred to Chelsea in the summer window and spoke about that moment: “But when I spoke with this club and with the coach [Enzo Maresca], it was also important to consider the style of play we have now. He explained many things to me in a video call, so I think it was a very important transfer for me and an opportunity to develop as a player in a team like Chelsea.”

“I know him from the national team, and he’s a very good person. I spoke with him many times during the summer. He sent me messages every week. Then, we met again here, and he helped me a lot, to be honest, from the very beginning of my time here, so now we are very good friends,” he concluded, speaking about Enzo Fernández, his teammate at Chelsea.
