Man Utd hit with three questions after ‘agreeing’ Mason Greenwood return stance

Published

A former Premier League star concurs with the position taken by Manchester United regarding the return of Mason Greenwood.

Danny Mills asserts that it would be challenging for Manchester United to authorize Mason Greenwood’s reintegration next summer without encountering opposition comparable to that which occurred a few months ago. The former Premier League star has cautioned United, notwithstanding an impending leadership change, against inviting such a diversion.

The dismissal of proceedings against Greenwood by the Crown Prosecution Service in February, which included attempted rape, assault, and controlling and coercive behaviour, enabled him to resume his football career for the current season.

According to reports, United CEO Richard Arnold informed club personnel that he intended to declare Greenwood’s return to Erik ten Hag’s squad following the conclusion of a six-month investigation.

Severe online backlash, however, apparently compelled a swift U-turn. Arnold conveyed his conviction that the 22-year-old forward was not guilty of the accusations leveled against him, while affirming that he would persist in his professional endeavors outside of Old Trafford.

Greenwood, who returned to Spain on transfer deadline day to join La Liga club Getafe on a season-long loan, is restoring his knack for scoring.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s £1.4 billion acquisition of a 25 percent stake in Manchester United will entail complete authority over the club’s athletic operations; consequently, John Murtough, the director of football, and Arnold are among those who may be let go.

The forthcoming alterations have generated conjecture regarding the possibility of Greenwood rejoining United under a new management.

Nevertheless, Mills harbors skepticism regarding the Red Devils’ prudence in contemplating such a contentious maneuver.

“I believe [Greenwood’s return] would be accompanied by extremely, extremely difficult optics,” Mills of Grosvenor Sport told Express Sport.

“I believe it would be an extremely, extremely difficult decision to bring him back to this nation, regardless of how well he performs in terms of scoring goals.

“Because, regrettably, the media effectively controls the global community.” I believe that the circumstances surrounding that would be extraordinarily disruptive.”

United, according to reports, is in agreement with Mills. As reported by GiveMeSport, the Old Trafford titans are adamant that Greenwood will not return to the club.
