Transfer Update: Greenwood

Transfer Update: Greenwood

With Manchester United having decided that Mason Greenwood should continue his career elsewhere, here is the apparent latest on the 21-year-old's future.

On Monday, the 20-time English champions announced they had reached a mutual agreement with the one-time England international that would see him leave the club.

Greenwood has not played for United since his arrest in January 2022, but was said to be hopeful of a return to action for his boyhood side after the charges he faced were dropped earlier this year.

However, the young striker, once considered among the best up-and-coming forwards in England, will now need to look for a new team, a decision the Red Devil board believes is best for his career.

A statement posted on last season's Carabao Cup winners website read: "Our process commenced in February 2023, following all charges against Mason being dropped. Throughout, we have taken into account the wishes, rights and perspective of the alleged victim along with the club's standards and values, and sought to collate as much information and context as possible. This has required us to proceed with sensitivity and care to obtain evidence not in the public domain, including from those with direct knowledge of the case.

"Based on the evidence available to us, we have concluded that the material posted online did not provide a full picture and that Mason did not commit the offences in respect of which he was originally charged. That said, as Mason publicly acknowledges today, he has made mistakes which he is taking responsibility for. 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."

While it remains unclear if clubs in the Premier League would consider a move for Greenwood, talkSPORT reports that Serie A giants Roma are among the overseas teams linked with his signature.

This proposed transfer would see the player reunite with Jose Mourinho, whom he, at times, trained under at United's training base prior to making his senior debut under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer shortly after the Portuguese tactician's departure from Old Trafford.

Greenwood has also been the subject of interest from teams in Turkey and other sides in Italy in the past, while Monaco and Al Ettifaq have become the latest clubs to reportedly monitor the striker's situation.
