Manchester United sensation Alejandro Garnacho has been told that he does not deserve to be named for World Cup duty alongside Lionel Messi due to his bond with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo and Messi are widely regarded as two of the greatest players in history if not THE very best - winning the Ballon d'Or a staggering 12 times between them. Despite being in the twilight of their careers, the two are ready to lead their respective nations - Portugal and Argentina - at the impending Qatar showcase.
Garnacho, 18, has emerged as a late contender for selection, meanwhile, with Roma forward Paulo Dybala rated as an injury doubt for the finals. It comes as Madrid-born Argentine hotshot Garnacho continues to make a big impact in United colours at Old Trafford and beyond.
