They have been negotiating over a new, improved offer with the player for some time now and have now succeeded in agreeing on a new deal.
According to ESPN, Garnacho and Man United agreed to a five-year deal, and the final stumbling block before the deal is sealed is an issue regarding image rights for the player. However, that isn’t expected to be a concern.
The 18-year-old will benefit from a considerable pay rise that will take him from an academy salary to a first-team player’s wage. The deal will see his pay increase progressively as he becomes more involved in the first team.
