Manchester United have named their price for Alejandro Garnacho after he slammed Ruben Amorim for his Europa League final decision.
Garnacho was not happy after being named on the bench for the showpiece against Spurs in Bilbao, where Brennan Johnson scored the only goal of the game at the end of the first half to end his side's 17-year trophy drought.
The Argentina international did enter the fray as a second half substitute and replaced Mason Mount but could not bring an equaliser despite his best efforts down the left flank.
After the game, Garnacho, who has scored 11 goals this season, expressed his disappointment and hinted at having a decision to make about his future.

“Until we reached the final, I played every round," he is quoted as saying in the mixed zone.
"And I played 20 minutes today - I don’t know. I’m going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens next.”
Garnacho's brother Roberto was also critical and accused Amorim of "throwing players under the bus" after he defended his call by bringing up the 20-year-old's miss in the semi-final second leg against Athletic Club.
Two clubs interested in Alejandro Garnacho as Man United valuation revealed
With doubts about Garnacho continuing at Old Trafford, it's emerged that United would be willing to offload the former Atletico Madrid youth player this summer.
Chelsea and Napoli have both been heavily linked with Garnacho and according to James Ducker from The Telegraph, both placed bids for the winger in the January transfer window.
They could go back in for him in the summer, with the report claiming United would be willing to sell him for a fee of £60 million.
As an academy graduate, Garnacho's sale would count as pure profit on the balance sheet and could follow on from Scott McTominay's switch to Serie A leaders Napoli for just £25 million last summer.
Garnacho is tied to United until 2028 but with no money coming in from European football next season, he appears to be a leading contender to move on to help fund United's transfer plans.
United are hopeful of selling Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Antony for £90 million, while there are doubts about whether Rasmus Hojlund and Casemiro will stay put.
The Red Devils are pushing to sign Ipswich Town's Liam Delap and Wolves' Mateus Cunha for a combined total of £92.5 million - with both having release clauses.
