Garnacho, who had contributed significantly throughout the tournament, was introduced late in the match, limiting his impact on the game.
Post-match, Garnacho reportedly stated, “I played every round to help the team reach the final, and today I only got 20 minutes.”
He also commented on his future, saying, “I don’t know. I will try to enjoy the summer and then see what happens.”
Manager Ruben Amorim defended his decision, highlighting a missed opportunity by Garnacho in the semi-final as a factor.
Amorim stated, “It’s easy to say that now. Who missed the big opportunity in the first half in the semi-final? Garnacho.”
He added, “If the board and fans feel that I am not the right guy, I will go in the next day without any conversation about compensation.”
The defeat marked a disappointing end to United’s season, with questions arising about both player and managerial futures.
Garnacho’s comments have fueled speculation about potential transfers, with interest from clubs like Chelsea reportedly emerging, reports Sports Bible.
