The revelation of Alejandro Garnacho's intricate tattoo sleeve dedicated to the beloved TV series Prison Break on his arm has recently captivated fans. While sidelined with injured ankle ligaments after a fierce collision with Southhampton, the 18-year-old Argentine forward proudly displays an assortment of captivating tattoos adorning his body.
Drawing inspiration from his cherished childhood cartoon, the talented Manchester United forward has adorned his lower leg with a captivating scene from Captain Tsubasa, a renowned Japanese manga series centered around the world of football.
Adding to his inked canvas, his left arm proudly displays a striking image of a fierce-looking tiger, alongside other captivating designs.
Young Garnacho is widely regarded as one of the future stars at Old Trafford, and his potential has not gone unnoticed. In an exclusive report last month, SunSport revealed that Garnacho had already impressed new boss Erik ten Hag during training sessions. While he already sported tattoos on the lower part of his right arm, his recent addition completes a remarkable sleeve.
And it comes as no surprise that his favorite TV show has left an indelible mark on him. Garnering attention on Instagram, his latest tattoo showcases stunning portraits of Michael Schofield, the iconic protagonist from the acclaimed series Prison Break.
In addition to the captivating portraits of Michael Schofield, Alejandro Garnacho's right arm showcases the characters Lincoln Burrows and the notorious villain T-Bag from the widely popular American TV series Prison Break. It is worth mentioning that United legend Gary Neville previously disclosed that Wayne Rooney affectionately bestowed the nickname "T-Bag" upon him.
With these impressive inkings, it is safe to assume that Prison Break, an exhilarating action thriller that captivated audiences from 2005 to 2017, holds a special place among the teenager's favorite Netflix shows.
As Garnacho recently shared a picture of his tattoo on his Instagram story, fans on social media couldn't help but express their reactions. Here's a glimpse into how they responded to his latest addition.
The fans' reactions to Alejandro Garnacho's "Prison Break" tattoo were mixed. One person expressed confusion, saying, "Can't get my head around the 'Prison Break' stuff." Another commenter was surprised, exclaiming, "He really has a Prison Break tattoo???? He has T-Bag tattooed on him????"
A different fan humorously remarked, "Why does Michael Scofield look like Phil Jones ffs," drawing a comparison between the character and a Manchester United player. Meanwhile, another individual playfully questioned Garnacho, saying, "My man got all of Prison Break tattooed on his body, brother, where are you actually trynna break from??"
Despite his tattoo garnering attention, Garnacho's on-pitch appearances have been limited. He made a brief one-minute cameo in the defeat to Brighton on the opening weekend and remained unused as a substitute in the 4-0 loss against Brentford.
However, the young forward played a significant role in helping Manchester United's youth team secure victory in the FA Youth Cup last season. In just six games, he scored seven goals and provided three assists, contributing to the team's successful campaign.
