Man Utd make major decision over Mason Greenwood as club issues rare official update on forward

Mason Greenwood is among the players to have been retained by Manchester United.

Greenwood has not played for United since his arrest in January 2022 for attempted rape, controlling behaviour and assault.

All charges against the 22-year-old were dropped with the player having always denied the accusations.

Greenwood spent last season on loan at Getafe, winning the club's player of the season award and scored 10 goals in 36 appearances.

And amid speculation over his future, United have opted to retain Greenwood ahead of the coming season.

The forward, who still has a year remaining on his contract, will likely be sold by the club the summer.

Juventus, Napoli and Borussia Dortmund have all been reported to be interested in Greenwood's services.

Meanwhile, Getafe are also allegedly interested in retaining the player's services.

Yet Greenwood appears to have quashed the chances of him remaining the La Liga outfit beyond the summer.

He issued a 'goodbye' message to the club and its supporters on Instagram.

Greenwood said on Instagram: “Incredibly grateful to the Getafe family and fans for an amazing season, Thank you for making me feel welcomed and one of your own. I enjoyed every second, alongside my teammates and club.

“A bittersweet ending, but it was a pleasure to play for you, I wish you all the best.”

Meanwhile, United are still making a decision on whether to keep Erik ten Hag at the club as manager.

The Dutchman led the club to their lowest Premier League finish in history last term, but won the club the FA Cup.
