Fans of Manchester United were brought to tears as Alejandro Garnacho’s “class act” went viral.
Only twenty-four hours after his own beautiful moment on the field, the amazing moment happened yesterday at the club’s Carrington training complex.

Garnacho left the youngster in tears of joy after he handed him the boots he wore to score the goal and signed them
Garnacho stole the headlines with his amazing overhead kick after just three minutes – an effort Gary Neville stated was better than Wayne Rooney’s famous one against Man City.
However, the 19-year-old Argentina international decided to make the day of one young supporter on Monday after he had finished training.
A kid named George was waiting to see the winger, who stopped his car for a chat, and he backed up Neville’s claim by telling him that his goal was better than Rooney’s.
He then showed the South American ace a cut-out of his strike – but he was to get something even better in return.
Garnacho proceeded to give George the boots he was wearing for his overhead kick, and they came complete with a personalised message and the signature of the ace.
The child was completely blown away by his present as he struggled to contain his emotions in the truly heartwarming clip.
The footage was soon going viral on social media and one fan shared it alongside the words: “Alejandro Garnacho, what a guy!”
“This is incredible,” declared another supporter.
A fellow United follower wrote: “Such a wholesome moment. Made me cry.”
“I love this,” stated another. “My respect for Garnacho has gone up instantly. Can’t be a guy that wants to give back to the fans.”
Another said: “My starboy is a class act on and off the pitch!”
While a fellow fan added: “A fantastic gesture. It cost Garnacho nothing but his time but little George will never forget that moment.”
Garnacho’s first goal since defeating Crystal Palace in the League Cup on September 26 came from that strike.
