He has spent the last two seasons away on loan at Nottingham Forest, helping them win promotion this season. Garner also signed a two-year extension in the middle with the Red Devils, with his current contract set to expire in 2024. HITC has reported that three Premier League clubs - Everton, Leicester City and Southampton - are now keen to sign the young midfielder. However, given Garner's potential, Murphy has expressed his surprise at Manchester United's decision to sell him this summer. He said: ''I am surprised. He had a terrific season (at Nottingham Forest). He can play holding, box-to-box, he’s technical and can score a goal. I’m really surprised (United are letting him go).” Another pundit, Trevor Sinclair, compared Garner's set-piece prowess to that of legendary English captain David Beckham. The former Manchester City winger told talkSPORT: “James Garner’s deliveries remind me of David Beckham’s. He’s got that dip and that whip and it causes so many problems. The pace on the ball, he’s putting it on a sixpence every time. It’s an absolutely phenomenal cross that he’s got in the locker.” Manchester United fans unhappy with club s decision to sell James Garner United fans are displeased with reports of Garner being sold to Everton. Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has reported that Everton are close to competing a deal for the young midfielder. Fans have not taken kindly to this decision.
