Generous Manchester United star Garnacho gifts boots to young fan

Alejandro Garnacho surprised a young Manchester United fan by gifting him the boots in which he scored his stunning goal against Everton.

The Argentina winger netted what has been described as the best overhead kick of all-time at Goodison Park at the weekend, spectacularly converting Diego Dalot’s cross at the far post with a stunning volley that flew past Jordan Pickford.

United went on to win the game 3-0 but much of the post-match focus was on Garnacho’s goal.

His popularity with the United fans was already through the roof but it is set to go up even further after a video emerged of him giving his boots to young George outside the club’s Carrington training ground.

Garnacho signed the boots and the box and engaged in a lovely chat from inside his car.

George, who regularly posts about Garnacho with his brother Harry, was moved to tears, although he insisted they were tears of joy!
