Arsenal became Manchester United s "abandoned son" savior? Garnacho s North London escape plan

Before the summer window of 2025 was officially opened, the air in North London was filled with the smell of gunpowder. The anxiety of Arsenal fans is written on their faces - the Premier League championship failed, the Champions League ended in the semi-finals, and the injury tide is tangled like a curse. Arteta's "Big U Tactics" (the unlimited return stream that fans jokingly call) was ridiculed as a "hypnosis artifact", and the technical shortcomings in the frontcourt became fatal. In the words of the fans, "Saka was so tired that he was cramped, Odegao became an immortal in stealth, Havertz played center? That was simply asking the truck driver to drive a fighter!"

At this time, the Gunners' transfer radar turned wildly. The upgrade of the winger is a necessity, and Martinelli needs the "catfish effect" on the left, and the rumored list is listed with a series of star-studded names such as Nico Williams, Leo, and Gordon. But no one expected that a "dark line" was quietly emerging - Manchester United's frustrated genius Garnacho took the initiative to extend an olive branch to North London.

A year ago, Garnacho was still the "Prince of Old Trafford", and gained countless fans with his sharp breakthroughs and arrogant celebration actions. However, the new coach Amorin's 3-4-3 system completely drove him into the cold palace. After sitting on the bench for 90 minutes in the Europa League final, it became the last straw that broke the camel's back. "Either let me play or let me go!" It is rumored that Garnacho's roar in the locker room directly alarmed Manchester United's senior management.

What's more fatal is that Manchester United is under great financial pressure this summer. In order to spend 117 million pounds to sign Ugat + De Jong, and to retain B fees at a sky-high weekly salary, Garnacho, who was born in youth training, became the fastest "cash machine". In the words of fans, he joked: "Marteau United's financial statements are based on Garnacho's transfer fee to PS!" As soon as the news that Garnacho's team contacted Arsenal came out, it instantly triggered social media. Some fans think he is a flash point on the wing and can make up for Odgao's creativity when he is absent; the opposition has found his bleak data of 3 goals and 4 assists in 29 games this season, mocking him as "picking up Manchester United's electronic garbage."

But Arteta's abacus may be more exquisite. Garnacho is good at cutting inward shots, which complements Martinelli's style and can share Saka's pressure to hold the ball; poaching from his arch-rivals can not only dampen Manchester United's morale, but also satisfy the "revenge pleasure" of fans (after all, Van Persie's script was still vivid in his mind); compared with Nico Williams' £60 million price, Garnacho's "discounted promotional price" is more attractive.

However, the risks are also visible to the naked eye: "thorny attributes" (Europa League finals scattered), "system compatibility" (can it adapt to Arteta's complex tactical instructions), and most critically - is he really the "technical flow answer" that the Gunners need?

Garnacho is just option B and even option C for Arsenal winger's plan. Sports director Edu's notebook is also filled with eight candidates:

Nico Williams (Bilbao): "Any Sarah Dream" but the price is persuaded to withdraw;

Rodligo (Real Madrid): The rumors of "Mbappe is selling when he comes" continue to ferment;

Rafael Leo (AC Milan): The label of "Lazy King" is incompatible with Tashi's high-pressure pressing philosophy;

Anthony Gordon (Newcastle): The cost-effective choice of "Reverse Anthony"...

Interestingly, this list exposes Arteta's entanglement - it must be technically delicate, strong, and young and have room for appreciation. Commented by netizens: "Ta Shuai is looking for hexagonal warriors in the football world, but his budget is only enough to match a pentagonal."
