According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the 22-year-old has given his stamp of approval to a move to Italian giants Juventus in the upcoming transfer window.
The versatile Englishman resuscitated his career at Getafe during the 2023/24 campaign, scoring 10 goals and providing six assists, after not playing any football for a year and a half, and the Old Lady are believed to be the current frontrunners for his signature ahead the likes of Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid.
While Greenwood might have given his approval the potential move, though, Juve still need to negotiate with the Red Devils over a transfer fee.

The same report claims that the Mancunians are looking at receiving between €35 million and €40 million (R719 million and R822 million) for the Bradford native, but the record Italian champions are not keen on spending that much on the young star, especially considering that he is approaching the final year of his contract at Old Trafford, which will expire in 2025.
Thiago Motta is rumoured to be set to become the new coach of the Italian giants, and it is said he has a great appreciation for the one-time England international, and reportedly intends to utilise him in either a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation.
It is said this admiration from the Italian tactician is believed to entice Greenwood to make the move to the Allianz Stadium.

Juve will reportedly try to drive United's price down by offering wingers such as Samuel Iling-Junior and Federico Chiesa in part-exchange as both, like Greenwood, have contracts that expire after next season.
If the Turin based side are, however, unable to land his signature, they could turn their attention to Brazilian attacker Savio instead.
