MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly rejected several offers from Turkish clubs for Mason Greenwood.

The 21-year-old forward had an astronomical rise through the United ranks from the academy to the first team.

However, Greenwood’s career hit the skids in January 2022 when he was arrested after a woman made allegations against him.

He was charged with attempted rape, assault and controlling and coercive behaviour.

He appeared before magistrates and was told he would face trial later this year.

But in February the Crown Prosecution Service dropped charges after several alleged witnesses refused to co-operate.

United, who had suspended him on full pay, announced they would hold an internal investigation into the circumstances around his arrest.

The Sun revealed he has spoken to manager Erik ten Hag and met with club officials — but his future at the club remains unclear.

Now The Athletic are claiming that several teams from Turkey have contacted the Red Devils regarding a transfer move for the one-capped England international.

But the club has turned down all approaches.

It is also reported in this update that the still suspended forward would “run through a brick wall to be back playing for United now”. 

Greenwood’s last appearance for the club was on January 22, 2022, when they beat West Ham 1-0 at Old Trafford.

United released a short statement when the CPS dropped charges against the £70,000-a-week player, who is under contract until 2025, that read: “Manchester United notes the decision of the Crown Prosecution Service that all charges against Mason Greenwood have been dropped.

“The club will now conduct its own process before determining next steps. We will not make any further comment until that process is complete.”

Meanwhile, SunSport recently revealed plans for Greenwood to marry his pregnant partner in the summer.
