Aston Villa could now kickstart summer talks with wantaway Manchester United man Alejandro Garnacho.
The Argentina international is one of the brightest talents at Old Trafford, but was limited to short substitute cameos towards the end of the season.
It now appears that the 20-year-old is going to be on the move in the upcoming window, with Unai Emery and Co. potentially set to make a move.
With that in mind, talks look set to kick off with the Red Devils as the B6 club looks to begin their summer of business with a bang.

Aston Villa to begin Garnacho talks at Manchester United
There is no doubt about the quality that the winger has, but he has struggled to showcase that in recent months after Ruben Amorim’s introduction.
Under Erik ten Hag, the ex-Atletico Madrid youngster was a bright talent and became a first-team regular alongside fellow youngster Kobbie Mainoo.

That has certainly changed under the Portuguese head coach, with Garnacho now linked with a switch to Aston Villa, ready for the new season.
As a result, former Brentford and Leicester City boss Martin Allen has been left blown away by the potential signing for Emery’s side.
The ex-midfielder believes that talks have already kicked off between United and Villa, with the latter keen to be kept aware of a potential deal.
Speaking exclusively to Villa News, Allen said: “He’s a good player, I think, but there are clearly issues between him and Amorim.
“There are plenty of issues between the manager and a number of Manchester United players, so it’s not just Garnacho.
“He’s got something about him, there’s no doubt about that.
“If Villa signed him, that would be a fantastic move for Villa. They’re challenging for the top four and top three, they’re right there and he’s the type of player that could boost them as a signing, not a loan.
“They’ll be on the phone, they’ll have asked Manchester United to make them aware of any developing situations and waiting for news on Garnacho.
“*Any way they can possibly get that deal done, they will be trying.*“

Garnacho could soon complete Aston Villa transfer
If anyone can get the best out of a maverick ace like the United winger, it is certainly Emery.
The Spaniard has already shown this season with Marcus Rashford that he knows how to bring players back down to earth.

Many Villa fans want last season’s loanee back in the upcoming window, but he could be beaten to the punch by Garnacho at Villa Park.
It would be interesting to see how much the youngster would cost and how much he would cost, especially if Man United want to part ways with him.
