MASON Greenwood’s Manchester United teammates don’t want him back at the club, despite all charges against him being dropped.
The 21-year-old striker faced charges of attempted rape, assault and coercive and controlling behaviour until earlier this month.
A new report in The Times has revealed that some player’s “harbour concerns” about Greenwood “coming back into the fold”.
The Three Lions ace is currently suspended by the club, pending an internal investigation.
It seems, though, that even if he is cleared by the probe, some of his fellow squad members have reservations about him joining back up with the team.
However, the report does add that “others would have no objection to it” based on the fact that Greenwood “has not been found guilty of anything”.

It comes after it was revealed that Manchester United’s women’s team are set against him running out at Old Trafford again.
According to reports in The Athletic, “the feeling is strong” amongst the team that Greenwood should be let go.
They cite an audio clip released on social media last January, which was alleged to be a recording of the player forcing himself on a woman.
This has apparently “disturbed” some players and made them “deeply uncomfortable” with the prospect of him pulling on the red jersey again.

Likewise, furious female United fans have demanded that he be released from his contract.
Meanwhile, The Sun Online recently revealed that Greenwood himself may have lost “millions” after being dropped by major striker Nike.
Similarly, any new club that takes him on if United release him, could expose themselves to a huge financial risk, according to a top PR expert.
It comes as it was discovered that a Champions League team had been “making enquiries” about picking up the young star if bosses in Manchester give him the boot.
There have also been rumours of a move to China in a drastic move to restart his career.
The charges against him were dropped earlier this month after key witnesses, including the woman at the centre of the case, withdrew.
