AdminAston Villa winger Alejandro Garnacho is reportedly attracting interest from clubs in Spain after a difficult start to life at Villa Park.
The 22-year-old joined Unai Emery’s side from Chelsea on a season-long loan during the summer, with the move set to become permanent for around £43million if certain criteria are met.
However, Garnacho has managed just 31 minutes of football so far this campaign and has remained an unused substitute in Villa’s last three matches.
With opportunities limited, doubts are growing over whether the conditions required to make his transfer permanent will be fulfilled.
According to Mail Online, several La Liga clubs are now monitoring the Argentina international’s situation.
Garnacho was born in Madrid and spent part of his development at Atletico Madrid before moving to Manchester United, making a potential return to Spain an intriguing possibility.
Emery was recently asked what Garnacho needs to do to earn his chance, and the Villa boss replied: “Continue working. Work, work, train, work.
“When he can have minutes to play, try to play well. He is progressing, but we have players in front of him now.
George Hemmings is playing fantastic. Alysson is also understanding things well and is giving us things I want. [Ibrahim] Mbaye also responded well.
“We want a competitive team and players to compete in the style we have. Garnacho is a little bit behind because of some circumstances we had in pre-season. It is time to be patient for the time he needs.”
