Alejandro Garnacho - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Left out of squad Saturday Garnacho has played only 11 minutes since the international break and was left out of the squad entirely for Saturday's game against Newcastle.

Impact Garnacho appeared to be building momentum during the international break after finding the net in friendly fixtures against Southampton and Sevilla. That scoring output has failed to earn him a larger role, as the winger received just 11 minutes against Fenerbahce in a contest Villa had already secured before missing out on the matchday squad entirely at Newcastle. The Chelsea loanee had already dropped behind multiple attacking options prior to the international window, and his total omission points to a further decline in his standing within the squad.

Scores in win over Sevilla Garnacho put in a lively display and capped it with a goal as Villa came from behind to beat Sevilla in the Antonio Puerta Trophy on Friday.

Impact Garnacho scored his second goal for Villa in the win over Sevilla, a week after he got off the mark with the only goal of a behind closed doors friendly against Southampton, though he is still waiting on his first in competitive action. The winger has slipped down the pecking order and was an unused substitute in the last four games with several players ahead of him, but he put in a lively display in Spain and turned home a cross at the back post. coach Unai Emery has said Garnacho needs to keep working and make the most of whatever minutes come his way, and a performance like this could give him a timely lift.

Impact Garnacho had a difficult offseason period as he struggled with both form and fitness issues while being sidelined through concussion protocols before the EPL kickoff. Since then, the winger has recorded just 31 minutes on the field, staying on the bench even when there was rotation in the lineup. Depending on how players like George Hemmings and Alysson perform throughout the season, they could remain ahead of the Argentinian in the contention for attacking spots going forward.

Available off bench Sunday Garnacho (concussion) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Brighton.

Impact Garnacho has cleared concussion protocols and is available for Sunday's Premier League opener. The winger will start on the bench, with George Hemmings getting the start on the left wing. Garnacho should provide a dangerous attacking option as a substitute, with any involvement Sunday potentially helping him push for a starting role in the coming fixtures.

Impact Garnacho will contend for a starting spot in his official Aston Villa debut, likely leaving George Hemmings on the bench in the season opener. Following an inconsistent spell at Chelsea, the talented winger could hope to take on a greater role with his new club. If he does, he could serve as a source of various offensive stats throughout the campaign.

AUGUST 22 • ROTOWIRE

Likely available for opener Garnacho (concussion) could be an option for Sunday's visit to Brighton in the absence of further updates about his progress in the concussion protocol.

Impact Garnacho is presumably fit enough to play, with the next game coming more than 10 days since his injury led him to the concussion protocol. If that's the case, the winger will look to start on the left flank, limiting George Hemmings to a secondary role. After a rather inconsistent spell at Chelsea, Garnacho will be hopeful to translate his attacking talent into goals and assists for his new club if he stays healthy throughout the 2026/27 campaign.

Impact Garnacho was withdrawn before half-time in Aston Villa's pre-season friendly against BG Pathum United in Thailand on August 4th after a collision left him bleeding from the mouth. He then missed the next friendly against Bayern Munich before returning to training at Bodymoor Heath on August 11th, a step that had suggested he might be ready for the UEFA Super Cup final. That expectation did not hold up, though, as he has been left out of the squad completely, including the bench, for the match against Paris Saint-Germain due to concussion protocols.

Not available Saturday Garnacho (knock) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Liverpool.

Impact Garnacho has been ruled out after interim coach Calum McFarlane confirmed he was unlikely to be available, with the knock that kept him out of Monday's fixture against Nottingham Forest proving too significant to overcome in time.
