Manchester United midfielder James Garner who has been loaned to Nottingham Forest has been impressing many with his spectacular performances over the past 12 months.
Garner has two and a half years left on his current contract with United and looking at the quality of his performances it seems that his parent club will be looking to tie him to the club for many more years to come.
He was one of the star performers a few days ago when Arsenal suffered a shocking defeat at the hands of Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup.
Premier League clubs like Everton have been already keeping a close eye on him and United wouldn’t be happy to let their future star leave for nothing.

To make things more clear, here are some of his improved statistics for Nottingham this season:
1. For a midfielder who has played less than 500 minutes for the Championship side, James Garner has made the highest number of key passes and progressive passes.
2. He has been improving defensively as well as he has won around 60% of his ground duels and has a 58% tackle success rate.
3. He has averaged around 4.5 interceptions per match which is a pretty good defensive record.
All these speak volumes of his growing influence on a side that is currently placed 8th in the Championship. His style of play has changed over the years as he has been now exploring new techniques.
His movement in tight spaces, positional awareness, and passing accuracy (81% pass accuracy) have been a joy to watch and he still has a few months left to play for Nottingham Forest.
Ralf Rangnick could add him to the list of players that can make it to the first team this season. After Anthony Elanga’s impressive start for his team, who knows maybe James Garner could get the calling very soon.
He has the capability and we believe he will flourish at Old Trafford.
