Man Utd striker Mason Greenwood ‘attracting new interest from European giants’ with Getafe loan transfer off the table


MASON GREENWOOD is reportedly attracting interest from one of Europe’s biggest clubs.

The Manchester United attacker is currently on loan at La Liga outfit Getafe after leaving Old Trafford in the summer.

Greenwood joined Getafe on a 12-month loan following a period away from the pitch after charges of attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault against the striker were dropped in February last year.

And SunSport understands that despite Getafe hoping to extend the 22-year-old’s stay in Spain with another loan move, Man Utd are only looking to sell Greenwood if they are to let him leave at all.

Reports elsewhere have now suggested that European giant Juventus are considering a permanent move for the Bradford-born winger this summer.

According to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Juve have identified Greenwood as a potential signing.

Execs at the Serie A club are said to think they can sign the one-time England international for a cut-price with his contract at United set to expire in 2025.

While his raw talent and young age are also understood to be major draws for the Old Lady.

Greenwood has impressed this season while on loan with Getafe netting six goals and registering five assists in his 24 La Liga appearances.

But it’s not yet known whether he will be leaving Manchester United this summer once he returns from his 12 months abroad.

New minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe claimed no decision has been made on Greenwood’s future when asked about him staying in Manchester.

He said: “It’s quite clear we have to make a decision. There is no decision that’s been made.

Who could be Man Utd’s next manager after Ten Hag?

“He’s on loan, obviously, but he’s not the only one. We’ve got one or two footballers that we have to deal with and we have to make a decision on, so we will do that.

“The process will be: understand the facts, not the hype, and then try and come to a fair decision on the basis of values. Is he a good guy or not?

“Could he play sincerely for Manchester United well? Would we be comfortable with it, and would the fans be comfortable with it?”
