Mason Greenwood’s return to Manchester United has been communicated to the club’s executive team.
There has been a long-standing expectation that United would once again welcome the 21-year-old.
Since his arrest in January 2022 as a result of violent photographs and audio being posted on social media, he hasn’t played for the club. In February of this year, allegations against Greenwood of attempted rape, assault causing actual bodily harm, and controlling and coercive behavior that were all connected to the same lady and all of which he denied were dropped.
Although Greenwood’s case has never been litigated in court, those visuals and those sounds are incontestable.
He hasn’t played for the club since his arrest in January 2022 as a result of violent images and audio being shared on social media. Allegations of attempted rape, assault resulting in serious bodily harm, and controlling and coercive behavior against Greenwood that were all tied to the same woman and all of which he denied were dismissed in February of this year.
Those images and sounds are undeniable, despite the fact that Greenwood’s case has never been contested in court.
Ten Hag is now in a precarious position as he attempts to catch up to Manchester City in the Premier League and contend for additional awards this year.
Rasmus Hojlund’s Β£72 million transfer will surely help by moving Marcus Rashford to his natural left-wing position and giving United the attacking focal point they lacked on Monday.
While he heals from a back ailment, the offensive situation is bleak, and trips to Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are planned in the upcoming three weeks.
Ten Hag will need access to No. 11 as soon as possible if he and his locker room are prepared to welcome Greenwood back.
