Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho's partner appears to have hinted that the forward is set to give his goodbyes to the club this afternoon against Aston Villa.
It has been a tumultuous week for Garnacho which culminated in the Argentine being shown the exit door. Following the Europa League final where the winger made a 20-minute cameo, he told reporters that United's season had been 's***' and that he was unhappy about his lack of playing time.
He also suggested that he did not know what the future held for him and that he was looking forward to enjoying his summer. Following the defeat in Bilbao, Garnacho's summer plans were confirmed.
In a meeting at Carrington, the winger was informed he would need to search for a new club in the summer by Ruben Amorim. Previously, Garnacho had been reprimanded twice by the Portuguese for his actions.
First, he was dropped for the Manchester derby for his training ground attitude. Then, he stormed off during the Ipswich game at Old Trafford which earned him the punishment of buying the team a meal.
All eyes will be on whether or not Garnacho features against Villa this afternoon but his partner Eva Garcia appears to have hinted on Instagram that this will be his farewell game. Posting a picture of their child Enzo's kit for the Premier League match at Old Trafford, she captioned it: "Last match," accompanied with a tear emoji.

While this could merely be a statement of fact due to it being the final game of the season, the noise surrounding Garnacho's future suggests that there is a greater meaning behind the message. Where Garnacho could move next is unclear.
Napoli were keen on him in January and saw a bid for him rejected. Chelsea were also linked with a move for the Argentine and his agents were spotted at Stamford Bridge at the beginning of the year but it is understood this visit was not thanks to an invite from the Blues' boardroom.
