Top six clubs who could sign Mason Greenwood after Man United 'dumping'

The young forward’s time at Manchester United is finally over

Mason Greenwood has not played for Manchester United since January 2022, shortly before he was suspended by the club because, in February, Greenwood was charged with attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service when he forced himself on his partner.

In recent weeks the club was leaning towards reintegrating him into Erik ten Hag’s squad. But the club, which claimed last week it had not decided on Greenwood’s future, faced a backlash, with many angered by the prospect of Greenwood’s return. On Monday with mutual decision, it was decided that he won’t return to the Old Trafford.

The 21-year-old has a lot of potential and clubs around the world will possibly look to sign him. Here’s the list of clubs that could go all in to sign the youngster:

6. Al-Ettifaq

Manchester United have not revealed whether they will be terminating Greenwood’s contract at Old Trafford or sending him out on loan. The Saudi club which is being managed by Steven Gerrard now and captained by ex-Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson know a little too much about his game.

September 20 is the last date for Saudi clubs to sign a player unlike September 1 of England football, so possibly United and Greenwood will look for best options for him. It is suggested that Greenwood could be offered a contract worth £10 million a year in the Middle East to revitalise his career.

5. AS Monaco

Monaco is one of the only French club to show interest in signing Greenwood, Monaco has produced some world-class players including Bernardo Silva, Mbappe and Falcao. The French club are interested in signing him on loan for the current season.

Ben Yedder, Kevin Volland and Myron Boadu remain as Monaco’s attacking options. However, Ben Yedder and Volland have just one year remaining on their contracts, and both have been linked with a departure this summer so signing Greenwood would strengthen their attack, helping Monaco with all the experience he has of playing at the top level for one of the most prestigious clubs.
