The 18-year-old played in the Atletico Madrid development system for his entire life in Spain until enrolling in the Manchester United academy in October 2020.
In 2021, he also had three appearances for Spain's under-18 squad, but he now prefers to play for Argentina, which is where his mother's side of the family is from.
The talented young player, who received his first call-up to Lionel Scaloni's squad for their two World Cup qualifiers in March of this year, decided that the chance to play with the World Cup-winning side was an offer he could not refuse.
In an interview with the Argentine journal TyC Sports, he recently justified his decision to do so, which infuriated the Spanish press. Marca questioned the veracity of his Argentinian accent.

He had a strong 2022–2023 season with the Reds after making his senior squad debut on October 27, 2022, against Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League.
His most memorable performances include assisting Marcus Rashford on the game-winning goal in the Manchester derby triumph over Manchester City in January and scoring a stunning 93rd-minute winner as they won 2-1 against Fulham in the Premier League before the World Cup break last November.
Garnacho just agreed to a new five-year contract with the Reds that will keep him with the team until June 2028, but he was forced to skip the Under 20 World Cup because Erik ten Hag needed his services at the end of the season.
The two most well-liked additions to Manchester United this season have been Garnacho and Martinez.
