MASON Greenwood is on a list of Manchester United U21 players despite being on bail as police probe rape and assault allegations.
The 20-year-old remains suspended but has still been named in an official squad for the 2022-23 season.
The Premier league star will not appear in the 25-man senior squad – but is on a list of under 21 players who are eligible to play for the first team in the Premier League this season.
Because the forward remains an employee of the club, he is automatically an included option.
Greenwood was arrested in late January for alleged rape, assault and a threat to kill.

In April, a club spokesman said: “There has been no change whatsoever in Mason’s status.
“We removed his profile from the club app soon after he was removed from the squad in January.”

He joined the team aged just six and rose through the ranks to land himself a regular spot on the first team.
In 2019, he became the youngest footballer to play for Utd in the Champions League when he took to the pitch aged 17.
