Manchester United is reportedly considering a swap deal that would involve wing-forward Alejandro Garnacho moving to Aston Villa in exchange for striker Ollie Watkins . The transfer talk emerges amidst United’s pursuit of attacking reinforcements.
Watkins has maintained impressive form for Villa, making him a target for United, while Garnacho’s development and pace have drawn interest from Villa fans eager to see how he might fit in Liverpool and Ligue 1 interest has also been linked with Garnacho . Reports indicate United are keen to avoid a bidding war for other high-profile forwards.
