Man Utd are expected to sell the forward in the summer transfer window.
Amad Diallo hopes close friend Alejandro Garnacho will still be at Manchester United next season after he was told he could find a new club in the summer transfer window. The 20-year-old was left out of the United squad for their victory over Aston Villa on the final day of the season after he was critical of the decision to be named on the bench for the Europa League final defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.
Garnacho was subsequently named in the squad for their post-season tour of Asia and impressed with his performance from the bench as they lost 1-0 to ASEAN All-Stars yesterday. The Argentine is expected to feature again when United finish their two game tour against Hong Kong on Friday.
The proposed sale of Garnacho would be a huge financial boost for United this summer due to the fact any fee received would be counted as pure profit, though Amad is hopeful his fellow forward will still be at the club next season.

Amad reveals Garnacho transfer wish
Ruben Amorim and Amad Diallo both spoke to the press ahead of Manchester United's final post-season tour match against Hong Kong. The duo were both asked about the future of Alejandro Garnacho after he impressed from the bench in their previous defeat to ASEAN All-Stars.

Amad was then asked about the future of his close friend and whether he was concerned United could sell Garnacho in the summer transfer window: "Alejandro is a really good player and we need good players in the team," he added. "I know Garna really well, so I hope to have Garna next season. It is not really a big issue for the team. Everything is good now."
