Manchester United 'want £43m for Mason Greenwood this summer'

Greenwood has scored 35 goals and registered 12 assists in 129 matches for Man United in all competitions, but he has not played for the club since January 2022 and is currently on loan in Spain with Getafe.

Little over two years ago, following accusations from a woman, the forward was arrested on suspicion of rape and assault, and he was then further arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and threats to kill.

The Red Devils academy product was also facing charges of attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm, but the case against him was dropped last February.

Man United are believed to have made the decision to bring Greenwood back into their squad last summer before changing their mind due to the strong reaction of the public.

The English club's new minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe recently suggested that the 22-year-old could potentially be brought back into the first-team picture at the club.

Ratcliffe promised to look at "the real facts" before making a final decision, but it is still thought to be highly unlikely that the Englishman will turn out for Man United again.

Greenwood has been in impressive form for Getafe this season, scoring eight goals and registering five assists in 26 appearances in all competitions.

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are said to be among the clubs keen on the forward, who has a contract with his parent club until the summer of 2025.

According to Marca, Man United have set an asking price of £43m for Greenwood, with the club planning to sell him during the upcoming market.

Before his arrest, Greenwood was viewed as one of the best young talents in world football, and he had a standout season for the Red Devils in 2019-20, scoring 17 times in all competitions.

The forward had also managed six goals in 24 appearances during the first half of the 2021-22 campaign before he was suspended by Man United in January 2022.

Greenwood has netted six times and registered five assists in 23 La Liga appearances for Getafe this season, but he was absent for his loan side's last game against Valencia through suspension.
