Man Utd continue to debate Greenwood future

Posted Tuesday, March 12, 2024 by Tribalfootball.com

Premier League giants Manchester United are still contemplating what to do about a star outcast.

The Red Devils have yet to make a decision on the future of Mason Greenwood.

The forward has not played for the club since he was arrested back in January 2022.

He is on loan at Getafe this season, with Fabrizio Romano admitting that all options are on the table.

New investor Sir Jim Ratcliffe said recently: "We will make a decision. I don't know if he could still have a future.

"All I can do is talk about the principle of how we will approach decisions like that.

"Is he the right type of footballer? Are we happy with that? Is he a good person or not?

"Greenwood is a Manchester United footballer and we are in charge of football.

"So the answer is it's quite clear we have to make a decision.

"There is no decision that's been made. He's on loan obviously but he's not the only one.

"The process will be - understand the facts not the hype and then try and come to a fair decision on the basis of values - which is basically whether he is a good guy or not.

"Could he play sincerely for Manchester United well and would we be comfortable with it and the fans be comfortable with it?

"I can talk about the principle. The principle is the important one because we will have other issues going forwards.

"You are dealing with young people who have not always been brought up in the best circumstances, who have a lot of money and don't always have the guidance they should have.

"What we need to do when we have issues like that is to understand the real effects, not the hype.

"Then we need to make a fair decision in the light of the club's values.

"That's what we need to do and that's how we will deal with it."
