'Agonising and lonely' - Man United player drops bombshell social media post

talksport.com, 2 March 2025, 23:06
Manchester United Women's forward Geyse posted a worrying message claiming to being unhappy and lonely amid uncertainty over her future.

The Brazil international made a cameo appearance during the Red Devils' 2-0 win over Leicester in the Women's Super League on Sunday, coming on in the 84th minute.

She has endured a very difficult time of late, having been granted compassionate leave in January after the death of her brother Geovane Ferreira.

In a shock claim, Geyse's agent has accused the club of trying to arrange a loan move for the player to an American club during this period.

Luis Filipe Silva told the Daily Telegraph: "As you know, her brother passed away, she is going through a very difficult time, it is a very difficult time psychologically and at Man United she is not having the best time.

"The club has clearly shown that it does not count on Geyse, Man United tried to loan Geyse to a club in the USA, but the player has the right to decide about her future and the club she will play for.

"The best solution for all parties is to leave and I repeat, Man United was the first to try to loan the player when she was at her brother's funeral."

And in a concerning message to fans on Sunday, Geyse said: "Staying in a place where we don't feel happy is an agonising and lonely feeling.

"Every day seems heavier, and the simple fact of being there becomes a burden.

"The environment, which should be welcoming, becomes a field of discomfort, where inner peace is difficult to find.

"When we are not in tune with what surrounds us, the world around us loses its colour and energy.

"Sometimes, the desire for change arises as an urgent need, but the fear of the unknown or insecurity about the future can paralyse us.

"However, it is essential to remember that we deserve to be in places and situations that bring us happiness and fulfilment. That's the only way we can grow."

In a statement given to the BBC, Man United said: "We continue to support Geyse in her well-being and are continuing to look for options which suit all parties."

Geyse, who joined Man United from Barcelona in the summer of 2023, has made 11 appearances in all competitions this season.

The day after the January transfer window closed, head coach of the women's team Marc Skinner said on Geyse's future: "Honestly, right now, Geyse is in a moment of grieving. She is on compassionate leave.

"In reality - I've said this and I think you know this - I don't do [the] business side. The club is on the business side [for transfer negotiations].

"All I know is that Geyse is a Manchester United player and she'll be coming back, and we have got a fantastic plan to try and support her in a really difficult time."

Man United are currently second in the WSL, five points behind leaders Chelsea with seven league fixtures for each team in the division left.
