Cristiano Ronaldo cautions Alejandro Garnacho about the challenges of Serie A as Napoli eyes a transfer
Garnacho’s contract with Manchester United runs until June 2028. This season, he’s played 19 times in the Premier League, scoring three goals and getting one assist. Even with those modest stats, he’s caught the eye of clubs abroad.
Reports say Napoli offered £38 million for him, but that wasn’t enough for United. They want around £60 million for Garnacho, which would be a big boost for their finances, especially with the Profit and Sustainability Rules in play.
It’s unclear if Garnacho would want to move to Napoli. Ronaldo has said Serie A is the hardest league for forwards, which might make Garnacho think twice. He mentioned in a past interview that he was surprised by the quality in Italy.
Ronaldo noted that scoring in Serie A is tougher than in Spain, where games are more open. He feels the focus in Italy is more on defense first. He’s had his share of experience in both leagues, so his words carry weight.
