Alejandro Garnacho has used Aston Villa’s international break to make progress under the club’s Spanish head coach, who has welcomed the Argentine’s improvement while making clear that further work remains.
Key takeaways
- Garnacho featured for Aston Villa in a friendly match during the international window.
- The Argentine has completed two weeks of work with his new coaching staff.
- Villa’s Spanish manager has noted a positive change in the winger’s development.
- The coach believes Garnacho still has areas of his game to refine.
Work continues during the international break
With competitive fixtures paused for the FIFA window, Aston Villa have used the training period to give Garnacho additional time on the pitch and on the training ground. The Argentine was involved in a friendly as the Midlands club maintained its rhythm away from the usual match schedule.
The Spanish coach has been encouraged by what he has seen across the past fortnight. Garnacho’s response to the work has been positive, with the manager highlighting his improvement after two weeks in the programme.
A promising start, not a finished product
There was also a measured note in the assessment. Despite the progress made, the Villa manager stressed that Garnacho has elements still to develop.
For the Argentine, the break has therefore offered more than minutes in a friendly: it has provided a chance to adapt, absorb coaching details and continue his development before Aston Villa return to their regular campaign.
