Alejandro Garnacho says he’s ‘totally different’ to how fans see him

 Garnacho has been speaking about how supporters perceive him, and told HBO Max that he is misunderstood as a person.

He said: “Yes, I think the people just see, for example, the player who you are, but then after this, it’s a person there, and I think a lot of people think things about me that maybe they are not like this because they don’t know me or things like this, but I just know my family love me and the people around me, so it’s the most important.

The winger was also asked about what he thinks people do think about him, to which he said that it could include them believing he is arrogant.

He added: “I don’t know, a lot of people today in the world, they can say anything about you, so, but yeah, they think I’m totally different that how I am, and maybe, like, I’m arrogant or not humble or things like this. A lot of people think you are different, and I said, I’m just a normal guy, so. But yeah, the people who I love, they love me, so this is important.”

Despite a lukewarm reaction from Chelsea fans so far, Garnacho has no regrets over his move to Stamford Bridge, and will feel as if he has a part to play in a huge final seven games of the Premier League season.

He will be hoping his late goal in the FA Cup win over Port Vale has done enough to convince Liam Rosenior that he should be handed the start against Manchester City.
