Manchester United suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Tottenham in the Europa League final on Wednesday night, adding to what has been a dismal campaign for the club. In the aftermath, Alejandro Garnacho’s brother—who also serves as his agent—voiced his dissatisfaction on social media over the winger’s limited role in the match. Garnacho himself echoed that frustration in a post-match interview with Argentinian television, hinting at doubts about his future at Old Trafford.
The defeat has deepened the sense of frustration among fans, many of whom are questioning the club’s direction and leadership. Garnacho’s public reaction has been cited as indicative of a deeper issue within the United camp—one in which personal ambition appears to be overshadowing team unity and discipline. This sentiment was shared by pundit Simon Jordan, who criticised the club’s internal culture during a segment on talkSPORT.
“You’ve given these kids a sense of entitlement,” Jordan said. “Whether it’s his brother or not, the agent’s opinion means nothing. United have let this happen. We’ve seen players like this before—stop with the drama and focus on showing up every week. This is the club you’ve allowed to develop. Now it’s time for your manager to regain control of that dressing room and demand performances that reflect Manchester United’s legacy. You’ve created this culture, and now you’re living with the consequences.”
With the Premier League season wrapping up, Garnacho will head into the summer break, using the off-season to reflect on his place at United. Incoming manager Ruben Amorim faces a critical task: restoring unity and professionalism within the squad. Meanwhile, Tottenham will celebrate their Europa League triumph with a trophy parade through North London.
