Manchester United: Getafe hope to keep Greenwood

Getafe president Angel Torres is confident Mason Greenwood will return to the Spanish club on loan next season if Manchester United can’t sell him in the summer.

Greenwood has impressed on a temporary deal with Getafe this term, scoring 10 goals in 32 appearances in all competitions.

The one-cap England international was charged in October 2022 with attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm. The charges were dropped in February 2023.

He has been attempting to rebuild his career in Spain – and Torres believes another loan spell at Getafe would do him good.

He told Radio Marca: “If it was up to the lad, his parents and the club [Getafe], I think he would continue for another year.

“But regarding Manchester [United], the news that we have from last week when the [Getafe] sporting director went to England to see some games and was with them, is that if a good offer comes along, they would want to sell because he is not going to go back there.

“We’ll have to wait until the end of June. The family and the player are very comfortable and very happy here, with our fans.”

Torres has been impressed with how the 22-year-old has settled at the club on the outskirts of Madrid.

He added: “When he came here, he hadn’t played for 16 months. He has recovered his form, he has scored eight league goals and two in the Copa. The people and the coach are very happy with him.

“I think he will remain with us for another season, or at least until January. He is a good footballer.”
