Alejandro Garnacho struggles at Aston Villa amid LaLiga interest

Summary

Former Manchester United forward Alejandro Garnacho, currently on loan at Aston Villa, has yet to start a game this season, having only 31 minutes of action from the bench. After a complicated year that saw him transferred from Chelsea, he is reportedly being monitored by clubs in LaLiga despite struggling to make an impression at Villa Park. Villa holds a £43m purchase option for Garnacho, but he has been an unused substitute in the last four matches. As the season progresses, his situation may change if he performs well during the training camp in Seville.
