Alejandro Garnacho sparks anger among fans as he posts picture wearing fellow Man United exile Marcus Rashford's Aston Villa shirt in apparent dig at Ruben Amorim
Alejandro Garnacho has angered Manchester United supporters with a controversial post on Instagram.
Garnacho shared snaps from his holiday to Ibiza which included a picture of him wearing Marcus Rashford's Aston Villa shirt.
Rashford, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Villa, is set to be exiled from United's tour of the USA along with Garnacho, Antony and Jadon Sancho.
Having fallen out of favour under Ruben Amorim, the quartet are set to train alone at Carrington if they are unable to find new clubs by the time the tour starts in July.
Rashford showed his support for Garnacho as he commented: 'My brother' along with a heart emoji.
However, many United fans certainly weren't pleased with Garnacho's post and the fact that he was wearing the shirt of a rival Premier League club.
One fan wrote: 'Villa shirt? C'mon mate, get a grip'.
Meanwhile, another stated: 'Really? Wearing a Villa shirt'.
One supporter suggested that Garnacho and Rashford should both leave United.
They wrote: 'Off you go with him. This is the reason you're no longer wanted by Amorim, your attitude. See ya'.
Another fan claimed that Garnacho's decision to wear a Villa shirt was 'madness'.
They wrote: 'To wear another Premier club's top is madness and proves you clearly are not mentally ready for the next level'.
Furthermore, another fan stated that Rashford had lost the respect of supporters as they wrote: 'You've lost the respect of majority of United fans especially those that have backed you'.
In addition, another added: 'There's a line and you just crossed it'.
In other pictures Garnacho can be seen drinking with friends and relaxing in a swimming pool.
Garnacho has played 144 games for United and has scored 26 goals but his future appears to lie away from the club.

The Interview Martina Navratilova: 'Women are still judged by a different metric than men'
'Women are still judged by a different metric than men' Amol Rajan speaks to Martina Navratilova, one of the greatest-ever tennis players, about her life and career. The story of her rise to the top of the game is as remarkable as the number of tournaments she managed to win. Born behind the Iron Curtain in Czechoslovakia in 1956, she was 11-years-old when she watched Soviet tanks roll in to the country as Moscow sought to reassert control and quash political reform. Navratilova, who played in her first tennis tournament when she was eight, rose to both national and international prominence in the years that followed. But in 1975, following the Czech government's efforts to control her tennis career, she defected. Aged 18, Navratilova sought asylum in the United States, where she later became an American citizen. During the late 1970s and 1980s she dominated the international tennis circuit, and by the time she retired, she'd won 59 major singles and doubles titles. But throughout her life, Navratilova has generated headlines on the front pages of newspapers, as well as the back. She came out as being gay in 1981, a rare thing for high-profile athletes to do at the time, and quickly became a prominent figure in the gay rights movement. More recently, however, she's found herself at odds with some groups due to her views on transgender athletes. She's also battled cancer on two separate occasions.

NBA fans savage Broadway icon's national anthem before finals Game 7 between Thunder and Pacers
Tony Award winner Kristin Chenoweth was slammed by NBA fans for her performance of the national anthem before Game 7 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers. Chenoweth, an Oklahoma native and passionate Thunder fan, took center stage live on ABC in the moments before tip off at the first Game 7 in the finals for nine years. But her rendition of 'The Star-Spangled Banner', in which she delivered one particularly long high note, did not go down well. It was described by one ABC viewer on social media as 'the worst national anthem I ever heard'. Another viewer posted: 'Geeze these national anthem singers are getting worse every time'. A third commented: 'I just witnessed another trashing of a national anthem.' Other fans described it as 'horrible' and 'rough'. Referring to the high note Chenoweth hit, one brutal fan posted: 'The end of that anthem made my dog uncomfortable'. Chenoweth's Thunder fandom has been no secret since the franchise's early years, though she also has professed at times to liking the Los Angeles Lakers and New York Knicks as well. That said, the Thunder are clearly her top choice - so much so that she once told the Tulsa World she spent three hours bedazzling a Thunder hat. She went to Oklahoma City University after growing up in Broken Arrow, about 115 miles northeast of where the Thunder play. And her 8-year-old dog's name is Thunder. She even dressed the pup up once in a Thunder outfit. 'I never miss a game unless I'm on stage,' Chenoweth said. 'I was a cheerleader in high school in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, and I loved football, but my favorite was basketball. 'I like how much of a team player you've got to be and this is my team.' Chenoweth has sung the anthem at a few Thunder games in the past, sometimes alone and at least once with children from her Chenoweth Broadway Bootcamp. That camp is part of the arts and education fund that she founded to cultivate 'young artistic expression by enriching children´s lives through the power of education, entertainment and experience.' Chenoweth won a Tony Award in 1999 for best leading actress in a musical for her role in 'You´re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.' She received two other Tony nominations for best leading actress in a musical, one in 2004 for playing Glinda in 'Wicked' - she lost to co-star Idina Menzel - and the other in 2015 for playing 1930s Hollywood diva Lily Garland in 'On the Twentieth Century.' And in 2009, she won an Emmy for best supporting actress in a comedy series for her work on ABC's 'Pushing Daisies.' She returns to Broadway this fall, playing Jackie Siegel in 'The Queen of Versailles.'
