Former defender likens Argentine to ex-Old Trafford winger.

Wes Brown has heaped praise on Alejandro Garnacho and compared him to another of the club's exciting former wingers. 

The Argentine has scored four goals in the first eight games this season and remains one of Erik ten Hag's most effective players. 

Talking to Instant Casino, former United defender Brown believes the 20-year-old has the same attributes as another fan favourite at Old Trafford. 

“Alejandro Garnacho has been playing really well,” said Brown.

“He reminds me of Nani in the way he plays – he’s not a Ryan Giggs or a David Beckham. Nani was very underrated because Cristiano Ronaldo was scoring everything, but on his day, Nani was just as good. He wasn’t as consistent, though, and wouldn’t score as many.

“Both Garnacho and Amad Diallo have become a lot more consistent this season and it’s great to see. They’ve both been panicking defenders and possess a goal threat, which is exactly what you want from your wingers. They’ve had good starts to the season and I hope that continues.”
