Mason Greenwood was arrested in January 2022 for offenses related to the content shared on the internet. Accusations against the 21-year-old footballer, including attempted rape and assault, were withdrawn on 2 February 2023.
Man Utd Statement
In response, Manchester United released a statement. Mason and all the other involved parties understand the challenges with him returning to Manchester United.
It has thus been agreed that it would be in the best interest for him to return to the club at a different stadium and we shall assist Mason on how to make this happen.
As further elucidated by Manchester United, having examined the information in our possession, there was insufficient information on the Internet and Mason Greenwood did not offend in respect of which he was initially accused.
That being said, what Mason stated in public today I think is that he has made mistakes for which he is culpable. Mason Greenwood admitted his mistakes and said he did not do the things he was accused of.
Mason Greenwood’s Future and Marseille’s Response
Despite reports of a £27 million switch to Marseille on verge of being completed as it is stalled by Greenwood’s approval.
Marseille’s Mayor Benoit Payan vehemently said Via RMC Sports. Greenwood’s behaviour is unprintable, terrible. I witnessed things that angered me to the core.
This man ought not to be allowed to brutalize his wife in this fashion, and I am convinced that he has no business being in this team.
The values of the city and the values of Olympique de Marseille are far from that. It’s far from racism, anti-Semitism. did you even consider, violence against women?And he wants to play for Olympique de Marseille, Greenwood?
Going Forward

Lazio who were strongly interested seem to have pulled out of the deal due to some complicated reasons.
