Getafe fans gathered outside of their stadium to celebrate Mason Greenwood's move from Manchester United.

The 21-year-old has joined the La Liga side on a season-long loan after United decided that the best solution for all parties was for the forward to continue his career away from Old Trafford.

And some Getafe supporters are delighted with the deal, with a group of fans filmed waiting for confirmation of the signing on their phones outside of the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.

Upon seeing the news, they jumped up and down in celebration, with Getafe's Twitter account posting a video of their reaction. You can watch the footage below.

Greenwood has been the subject of an internal investigation by the club after he had charges of attempted rape, assault and controlling behaviour dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service in February.

A statement from Manchester United confirming Greenwood's move to the Spanish club read: "Mason Greenwood has signed for La Liga side Getafe CF on a season-long loan.

"The move enables Greenwood to begin to rebuild his career away from Manchester United. The club will continue to offer its support to Mason and his family during this period of transition."

Since Greenwood's arrival, Getafe have also set up a brand new Twitter account for English-speaking fans to follow and keep up-to-date on the winger's progress.


James Ducker of The Telegraph has also confirmed that the Red Devils would pay the majority of his wages, tweeting that Getafe will "make a small contribution" towards the player's £75,000 weekly salary.

When announcing the decision on Greenwood’s future, United said in a statement: “All those involved, including Mason, recognise the difficulties with him recommencing his career at Manchester United.

“It has therefore been mutually agreed that it would be most appropriate for him to do so away from Old Trafford, and we will now work with Mason to achieve that outcome.”
