Alejandro Garnacho's agent, Enrique de Lucas, is adamant that the Manchester United youngster will represent Argentina at international level and not Spain, hitting out at the Royal Spanish Football Federation.
Despite representing Spain at Under-18 level, Garnacho, through family connections, made the switch to play for Argentina at Under-20 level, making his debut in that particular age bracket in March 2022. Born in Madrid, the United ace was then invited to link up with the Argentina senior squad last year, getting the chance to rub shoulders with Lionel Messi, but was not awarded his debut, meaning he could still play for Spain.
After being fast-tracked into Erik ten Hag's United squad prior to the World Cup, there was an outside chance that he would make Argentina's World Cup squad. Boss Lionel Scaloni, however, decided to overlook the youngster.
