In the away trip against Wigan this morning (January 9), Garnacho was one of the three spearheads of MU’s attack alongside Rashford and Hojlund. However, MU’s two goals came from the Portuguese duo Diogo Dalot and Bruno Fernandes.
Garnacho personally played well in this match when scored 8 by Whoscored, the 4th highest team, after Mainoo, Dalot, Rashford and Bruno Fernandes. Unfortunately, he did not have the opportunity to make a success even though he had many opportunities. In addition, the highlight that makes people remember Garnacho is the moment he pulled up his shirt after missing a delicious ball and people discovered that the underwear came from…Ronaldo.
It is not uncommon for Garnacho to idolize Ronaldo and use CR7 brand products. In January 2023, Garnacho was first spotted wearing CR7 branded underwear at the FA Cup. At that point, when Garnacho lifted his shirt and pulled up his shorts, the brand of the pants could be seen. The most recent is the encounter with Arsenal on September 3, 2023.
Furthermore, Garnacho once had a “Ronaldo style” wallpaper. That is the image of Garnacho celebrating a goal with the “napping” gesture, placing his hands on his chest. This is Ronaldo’s famous celebration style, second only to SIU.
Midfielder Leandro Paredes revealed that the stars of the Argentina national team teased Garnacho when he returned to the national team because of his love for Cristiano Ronaldo: “We joked a lot about Garnacho being a fan of Ronaldo. He was very shy and didn’t argue back. Poor guy, we drove him crazy.”
“Of course, it’s not a big deal who he idolizes. But when he returns to the national team, Garnacho cannot show his passion for his idol too openly. Because we are There is a big idol in the team. That is Messi”.
