Manchester United’s decision to reintegrate Mason Greenwood back into the first-team squad comes after the withdrawal of serious allegations concerning attempted rape, assault, and controlling behavior. Despite these controversies, the 22-year-old forward has been influential, contributing to seven goals across 13 appearances. While his contract extends until 2025, discussions were previously underway for a free transfer before his stint at Getafe.
Regarding the situation, Corres highlighted ongoing talks attributed to changes in Manchester United’s ownership. These discussions are in their initial stages, exploring the possibility of extending Greenwood’s tenure or arranging a permanent transfer elsewhere.
Corres emphasized Greenwood’s value and the trust placed in him, underlining the significance of continued collaboration between Getafe and Manchester United. The support Greenwood has received, not only from Getafe supporters but also from the broader Spanish community, was recognized, emphasizing the need to safeguard his reputation.
Getafe’s president, Corres, has conveyed the club’s belief in Greenwood, seeking to secure his permanent stay, although specific details regarding the cost negotiations were not disclosed. The recent shift in ownership at United complicates matters. Despite a 16-month gap since his last game, Corres anticipates Greenwood’s return to form, with potential game time in January or February, and Getafe remains optimistic about his progress.
Greenwood appears content in Spain and has attracted attention from elite clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Borussia Dortmund due to his performances. The positive reception and interest from major clubs suggest a promising future for the talented forward.
The potential permanent move to Getafe remains an ongoing subject of discussion and evaluation involving the player, the Spanish club, and Manchester United, as negotiations continue to evolve.
