Garnacho was left fuming after being benched for the Europa League final last month.
He later angered his teammates after giving an interview where he described United's season as 's**t'.
The 20-year-old cut a dejected figure on the Red Devils' disastrous post-season tour of Asia.
Garnacho was spotted in an altercation with a fan, before flashing the middle finger to supporters after a loss to the ASEAN All Stars.
The former Puskas Award winner has jetted out to Rome with girlfriend Eva Garcia for some much-needed R&R.
Garcia posted a host of snaps of the pair enjoying the Italian capital with their young son Enzo.
The influencer - who has her own jewellery line - uploaded the memories to her 664,000 Instagram followers.
Eva posed infront of the Trevi Fountain, before enjoying coffee in the sun with her boyfriend of over four years.
SunSport exclusively revealed last month United want £50million for Garnacho, who joined the club's youth ranks from Atletico Madrid in 2020.
The 20-year-old has made Chelsea his No1 choice.

Garnacho is also attracting attention from Napoli, but would prefer to stay in the Premier League.
United rejected a £40m January bid from the Naples club for Garnacho but may get twice that from the Saudis.
Pro League club Al-Nassr are preparing an audacious bid with Cristiano Ronaldo's future at the club uncertain.
Garnacho's relationship with Amorim fell apart after a dressing room spat boiled over infront of teammates.
Amorim reportedly told Garnacho he needs to "pray he can find a new club."
United have since signed Matheus Cunha and are eyeing up Swede goal machine Viktor Gyokeres.
Garnacho appeared in 36 Premier League games last season, contributing 6 goals and 3 assists.
Following Europa League heartbreak against Tottenham, the Argentine refused to be drawn on his future at United.
Garnacho said: "Until we reached the final, I played every round.
"And I played 20 minutes today - I don't know. "I'm going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens next."

Kylian Mbappe scores landmark goal as France finish third in Nations League
Goals from captain Kylian Mbappe and Michael Olise earned France a 2-0 victory over Germany in Stuttgart, a success that means they finish third in this season's Nations League. Hosts of the Nations League finals, Germany were looking to bounce back from defeat in the last four against Portugal but fell behind on the stroke of halftime after Mbappe controlled and finished well to score his 50th international goal. Germany thought they had levelled through Deniz Undav early in the second half, but the VfB Stuttgart forward's finish was ruled out following a VAR review. France did, however, remain in control and should have made the result more comfortable before Mbappe squared for Olise late on to secure third spot, with Iberian neighbours Portugal and Spain facing off in the final later on Sunday. Cristiano Ronaldo's winner ensured Germany tasted defeat for the first time since last year's European Championship on Wednesday. They did start well against a France team who were beaten in a thrilling semi-final by Spain, with Florian Wirtz seeing one first-half slotted effort clip the post. Mbappe, however, made no mistake after collecting Aurelien Tchouameni's long pass. The 26-year-old now sits just one goal behind second-placed Thierry Henry in France's all-time top goalscoring charts. Undav's fine finish seemingly restored parity early in the second half, but Niclas Fuellkrug was penalised for a foul in the build-up. Had it not been for Manuel Neuer and the woodwork, France would have been out of sight long before Bayern Munich's Olise tapped home to secure victory that ends their season on a high.

Gianluigi Donnarumma plans talks with PSG bosses 'amid interest from both Man City and Man United'
Gianluigi Donnarumma is planning to sit down with Paris Saint-Germain bosses to discuss his future amid growing uncertainty over his contract situation in the French capital. His current deal runs until June 2026 and PSG are keen to extend it. But there is also no shortage of interest in the 26-year-old from elsewhere. Manchester City 's interest in the Italy No 1 is well known, and the goalkeeper's superb performances in recent months have only strengthened their admiration. Donnarumma helped PSG win a historic treble in 2024–25, which was completed last weekend when they thrashed Inter Milan 5–0 in the Champions League final. He had played a leading role in getting PSG to the final, saving two penalties in a shootout win over Liverpool in the last 16 before making 14 more stops to help eliminate Aston Villa and Arsenal. According to L'Equipe, Manchester United have now joined City in eyeing a deal for Donnarumma, who is said to have discussed the prospect of a move to England with his Italy team-mates in recent days. Speaking while on international duty, Donnarumma told reporters: 'I don't know yet what is going to happen. 'I feel good in Paris. I haven't decided anything. For now, I want to focus on the matches with the national team, and nothing else. 'The situation at the club, I will discuss in the coming days with the management and my staff. For now, it is still too early.' Talks over a new contract began several months ago but have stalled, with PSG's offer reportedly including a reduced base salary and performance-related bonuses — a structure favoured by sporting director Luis Campos in recent negotiations. While Donnarumma has said publicly that he is happy in Paris, L'Equipe report that he has, in private, sometimes lamented a lack of support and recognition from the club — especially during periods of heavy external criticism.

Jannik Sinner vs Carlos Alcaraz – French Open final LIVE SCORES: World No1 closes in on huge win as he leads by two sets
Sinner 6-4 6-5 Alcaraz* Alcaraz again makes the perfect start to the game by claiming the first point and immediately ramping up the pressure on Sinner, who is as usual stone-cold stoic on the outside. A Sinner forehand at 0-15 just about clips a tiny bit of the line - I don't think I am the only one who thought that was drifting wide. Wonderful, wonderful tennis. Sinner gets to 40-15 in style with a rally that has a bit of everything, including a cracking drop shot and smart cheeky finish. Ace. Hold. A bit of emotion as he tosses the spare ball away and marches to his chair.
