ALEJANDRO Garnacho has refused to sign a new contract with Manchester United amid interest from Real Madrid and Juventus, reports suggest.
Garnachohas been enjoying a breakout season at Old Trafford with two goals and five assists in 15 appearances across all competitions.
According toThe Independent, the 18-year-old sensation, who is understood to be on 7,000 per week, was offered a new deal by United worth 20,000 per week.
However, the winger turned it down with his representatives claiming it isnt enough and doesnt reflect his growing status in the team.
The young Argentine has become a United regular under Erik ten Hag but is still among thesquads lowest-paid players.
Garnacho is second from the bottom in the wage bill, with only Anthony Elanga below him making 5,500 per week.

Hannibal Mejbi, who is on loan at Birmingham, earns almost double with a weekly salary of 13,000.
That has led to Juventus and Real keeping tabs on Garnacho, who has 18 months left on his currentUnitedcontract and has yet to receive any concrete offers from his various suitors.
Juve are looking to update their squad amid a disappointing season that has seen them slump to third place in the Serie A table.
Real, on the other hand, want to build a new team based on the next generation of players and see him as an interesting addition to join Vinicius Junior and Rodrigo up front.
