Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has confirmed Alejandro Garnacho will be part of next week's post-season tour after being left out of the matchday squad against Aston Villa.
It was confirmed by the Manchester Evening News on Saturday that Garnacho has been told he can leave Old Trafford this summer if the club receives an acceptable offer.
Garnacho's representatives have held talks with United chiefs after he was omitted from the starting line-up for Wednesday night's 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final.
Despite being omitted from Amorim's plans for the Premier League game against Villa, the United boss has confirmed Garnacho will be part of the squad that jets off to Asia.
Asked if Garnacho has played his last game for United, Amorim told TNT Sports: "No. Garnacho is a Manchester United player that is not in the squad today, but he continues to be a Manchester United player."
Asked if he will go to Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong, Amorim added: "Yes, everybody is going because we have to go to meet our fans and give something to our fans in the other side of the world."
Garnacho described United's season as "s**t" after the defeat to Spurs on Wednesday. He also questioned Amorim's decision to start him on the bench.
The Argentina winger said "we'll see" when asked about his future.
