Manchester United Set To ‘Ask Players’ Opinions’ Before Making Decision On Mason Greenwood

Manchester United remains undecided on what to do about Mason Greenwood after the r*pe accusations against the striker were officially dropped.

The Red Devils are set to seek players’ opinions from their men’s and women’s teams before deciding whether to reintegrate Greenwood into the squad.

The internal investigation into the 21-year-old’s actions is still ongoing with Man United wanting to make sure that they will not regret their decision in the future.

It has been suggested that ‘a number of individuals have expressed ‘concerns’ about Mason Greenwood returning to the club after being accused of r*pe and assault.

The 21-year-old has not played for United since January 2022. He was immediately suspended from training and matches following his arrest.

According to ESPN FC, Manchester United’s own investigation will be wide-ranging, including looking into the circumstances surrounding his arrest.

United have refused to comment on reports that manager Erik ten Hag has already spoken to Greenwood.

The forward is under contract at Old Trafford until 2025 with the option of another year. He has made 129 appearances for United since making his debut in 2019 and has been capped once by England.

Women players ‘disturbed’ by clips

The Times are reporting that Manchester United’s women’s players could yet have a say on Greenwood’s future.

That’s because some of them have apparently been left ‘disturbed’ by clips that emerged on social media.

Members of the team may therefore object to the prospect of the player returning to Carrington, something reported by both The Times and The Athletic.

It’s the kind of uncomfortable situation that is likely to play a big part in United’s decision-making process.

The report also claims that a number of sponsors would also have concerns about Greenwood returning to play for United.

Key partners are monitoring the internal investigation and will make a decision about their relationship with the club once a decision on Greenwood’s future is made.

A decision is unlikely to be announced until the summer at the earliest with Ten Hag keen for there to be no distractions during the second half of the season.
