Alejandro Garnacho wears shirt of Man Utd's Premier League rival on holiday and it's got people talking

Alejandro Garnacho has shown his support for Marcus Rashford by wearing an Aston Villa shirt while on holiday, but his decision to do so has angered a section of Manchester United fans, including Mark Goldbridge.

Garnacho looks set to leave Old Trafford this summer after the Argentine was told to find a new club by Ruben Amorim as he addressed the first-team squad, just days after their Europa League final defeat to Spurs.

The 20-year-old, who was left out of United's matchday squad for the final game of the Premier League season against Aston Villa, did take part in their controversial post-season tour of Asia.

But he is still expected to depart this summer, with a number of clubs reportedly interested in his signature, including Chelsea, Bayer Leverkusen, Atletico Madrid and perhaps the current favourites, Serie A champions Napoli.

Amid speculation around his future, Garnacho made the much-talked-about decision to post a picture of himself on Instagram wearing an Aston Villa home kit with 'Rashford 9' on the back.

Marcus Rashford appreciated the nod of support, and replied: "My brother" before including a love heart emoji in his comment.

But many United fans reacted badly to the picture, including United Stand host Mark Goldbridge, who commented on the post: "Bang out of order to all of us who have backed you. It's a big up yours to United fans."

In fact, Goldbridge vented about Garnacho's decision to wear a Villa shirt while on holiday as he spoke about the incident in a video on The United Stand's YouTube channel.

"What he has done there is basically put a rival clubs shirt on, said 'up yours' to every Man Utd fan, and also – let's call it for what it is – this is disrespectful, and he's lowering his own value to get the move he wants," said Goldbridge.

"He wants to go and play for Aston Villa, so he's trying to lower his value to get a move. He's behaving like an absolute t***."

Here's how other fans on social media reacted to Garnacho's post.

One said: "He’s a young lad and he’ll make mistakes but be surely knows this is going to annoy people. No time for this."

A second wrote: "For people who don’t understand what’s wrong with this pic: 1. You don’t wear the shirt of another PL team when you play for one yourself. 2. You don’t put the name of a player on the shirt who is currently at odds with the team you play for."

A third commented: "In all honesty wearing a Villa shirt while playing for Utd is outrageous behaviour," and a fourth said: "That tells you all you need to know about how toxic Man United has become."

A fifth added: "I just don't know what he thinks this is good for. It reaffirms the decision of United and can't possibly look good to any potential suitors. Even Villa."
