The U-20 World Cup in Argentina, the great opportunity to see Garnacho and the 'europibes' up close

2023-04-03T15:56:53.415Z


Between today and tomorrow it would be announced that the youth championship will be played in our country. The story of the young star who dazzles at Manchester United. And what are the other figures to follow.


The news is that

between Monday and Tuesday it could be announced that the U-20 World Cup will be held in Argentina

after the loss of Indonesia as the venue.

And the possibility seduces for two great reasons: first, Javier Mascherano's team that could not qualify in the South American Championship in Colombia would be present;

Second,

the Argentines would have the chance to see Alejandro Garnacho play, the youth who breaks it at Manchester United

and who is one of the great promises in the world.

And everything that happens to Garnacho with the light blue and white shirt will have an absolute responsibility:

Patricia Ferreyra Fernández, his mother

.

The story is already known, but it should be repeated.

Patricia traveled on vacation from Argentina to Spain and there she met Alex Garnacho.

They both fell in love, settled in the Arroyomolinos commune and formed a family from which Alejandro and Roberto were born.

But Patricia never lost her origin and from a very young age she filled them with Argentine identity.

There is a photo of a child Alejandro with a light blue and white shirt.

Garnacho was born on July 1, 2004 and grew up with a ball

.

And since he was a child he had two idols:

Oliver Atom

, in Europe known as Captain Tsubasa, and

Cristiano Ronaldo

, the Portuguese who broke it at Real Madrid when Alejandro began to fall in love with football.

From the first she has a huge tattoo on her right leg and with the second she shared some games in Manchester.

The first team Garnacho played for was Getafe and at the age of 11 he went to Atlético de Madrid, where he dazzled for 5 seasons.

Until Manchester United appeared in 2020 with an offer and the whole family moved to England.

The quick debut in the first team of the English cast caught the attention of the Argentine leaders and soon Lionel Scaloni called him up to be part of the Senior Selection, in the middle of last year.

Days later, he lowered the orders of Javier Mascherano, he played the international championship Maurice Revello (formerly known as Esperanzas de Toulon).

"It's a pride to wear this shirt

," Garnacho wrote at that time on his social networks.

The possibility of the U-20 World Cup being played can also serve to end Garnacho's love.

It is worth remembering that he has played some games in the Spanish Youth and that the only possibility that Argentina has to “shield” the talented United player is if he plays three games, be it FIFA or continental entities.

The Europibes, who are the other cracks that will accompany Garnacho

Of course, Garnacho will not be the only attraction, but there are several "Euro-kids" who could come to the country to play with the National Team.

Matías Soulé (Juventus), Luka Romero (Lazio), Valentín Carboni (Inter), Nicolás Paz (Real Madrid), Franco Carboni (Cagliari), Tiago Geralnik (Villarreal) and Facundo Buonanotte (Brighton) are the remaining youth players who could be cited .

Nicolás Paz was one of the most outstanding players in the South American, while Buonanotte and Valentín Carboni were summoned by Scaloni for the friendlies against Panama and Curaçao;

none added minutes.

Meanwhile, striker Soulé has already scored a goal in 19 games at Juventus and Romero has already accumulated 30 games in the First Division (21 in Lazio and 9 in Mallorca) with 2 goals.
