Manchester United in Advanced Talks with Marseille Over Mason Greenwood Loan Deal

Posted : 08 July 2024

Manchester United are nearing an agreement with Marseille regarding a loan deal for Mason Greenwood, which could lead to a permanent transfer. A source revealed to reported that the young forward, who spent the previous season on loan with Getafe in Spain, scoring 10 goals in 36 appearances, is set to leave Old Trafford. Although Greenwood was scheduled to return to Manchester United for preseason training this week, his contract still has 12 months remaining.

 

On Monday, Greenwood was seen at United's Carrington training ground for a meeting with the new football leadership team to discuss his future. However, he did not participate in training. Greenwood has not played for Manchester United since January 2022, following his suspension due to an arrest on suspicion of rape and assault. Greater Manchester Police had confirmed the presence of social media images and videos that alleged incidents of physical violence.

 

Initially charged with attempted rape, controlling and coercive behavior, and assault causing actual bodily harm, Greenwood was set for a trial in November 2023. However, the Crown Prosecution Service dropped all charges in February 2023, citing the withdrawal of key witnesses and new evidence, which led to no realistic prospect of conviction. Despite the charges being dropped, Greenwood has yet to return to play for Manchester United, as the club continues to search for a new team for him.

 

Getafe expressed interest in signing Greenwood permanently after his successful loan spell, but Manchester United reportedly seeks at least £20 million ($25.7 million) for the player. Other clubs, including Juventus, Atlético Madrid, and Lazio, have shown interest in a permanent deal, but Marseille has now emerged as the leading contender. According to a source, the French side has made a firm offer, and negotiations are ongoing, although the fee and terms of the potential deal remain undisclosed.
