Erik ten Hag issues reminder to Alejandro Garnacho after Manchester United contract extension

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has reminded Alejandro Garnacho that expectations of him have only heightened after the youngster signed a long-term contract extension.

Garnacho, 18, is now committed to United for five more years after putting pen to paper on a deal until 2028. A successful conclusion to negotiations coincided with a return to first-team training on Friday after almost two months out with an ankle injury.

The Argentina international has missed United's last ten matches across all competitions and his return will boost the Reds in the run-in, as they aim to secure a top-four finish in the Premier League ahead of the FA Cup final against City in June.
