Garnacho was born in Spain and signed for United from Atletico Madrid two years ago. The youngster represented the nation at Under-18 level, but Garnacho is eligible to play Argentina through his mother and he recently switched allegiances.

Garnacho, 17, is yet to make his senior debut at United but he received a shock call-up to Argentina's national side for the international break on the back of some excellent performances at youth level.
