Real Madrid have offered defender Ezequiel Garay to
Manchester United, according to reports in the English media.
The Argentine stopper has allegedly fallen out of favour with coach
Manuel Pellegrini, with the Chilean looking to offload the former
Racing Santander man in the summer.
The English champions are currently suffering an injury crisis at
the back, and publication The Daily Mirror comments that
they could be ready to negotiate with the Spanish side regarding a
possible loan move until the end of the season.
Garay, who netted the winning goal in the 3-2 victory over Valencia
at the Mestalla on Saturday evening, was regarded as the future at
Los Blancos but has failed to impress his new coach and is ready to
seek a move away from the Bernabeu.
The 23-year old is available in January and with Rio Ferdinand
struggling for fitness Sir Alex Ferguson could see Garay as a
stop-gap solution to allow him to strengthen his side in the
summer.
Garay signed with Real Madrid in 2008 but moved on loan to Racing
for a further season, returning to the capital club in the
summer.
