Alejandro Garnacho is at risk of a Football Association ban over a social media post regarding Manchester United team-mate Andre Onana.
Garnacho, 19, posted a celebratory post on Twitter following Manchester United’s 1-0 Champions League win over FC Copenhagen on Tuesday night where Onana saved a stoppage time penalty to ensure victory.
The Argentina international included two gorilla emojis in the since deleted post alongside a picture of Onana, team-mates and himself celebrating.
The FA are aware of the post in question and have sought Garnacho’s observations on it.
Manchester United...
Complete joke if they try and ban him, now I’m a United fan so there may be some bias here…
but he tweeted a picture of him, Maguire (who scored the winning goal) Onana (who saved a last minute penalty) and Mctominay with Maguire and Onana clearly being the main 2 in the photo.
Garnacho didn’t use 1 emoji of a gorilla directed at Onana… he used 2… the way I see it, he clearly meant it as being 2 beasts who won us the game.
