Mason Greenwood's career with Marseille has been nothing short of brilliant. He has impressed fans and coaches alike with his exceptional performance on the field. However, despite his fine form, Lee Carsley, the interim manager for England, has confirmed that Greenwood is not being considered for an England call-up at the moment.
At just 22 years old, Greenwood has made a remarkable start to his career with the French club, scoring five goals in his first three games since his move from Manchester United in the summer for a fee of £26.6 million. It seems that Marseille has made a smart investment, but the question still lingers about Greenwood's international future.
Although he has earned one cap for England, which was four years ago against Iceland, a lot has happened since then. Greenwood's move to Marseille has raised concerns about his return to the international stage. He had left Manchester United in July, but his last game for the club was in January 2022, before he was arrested for attempted rape, controlling behavior, and assault. However, all charges were dropped in February 2023, and he continued his club career on loan at Getafe before joining Marseille.
Despite his impressive performances, there is no indication that Greenwood will be making a comeback to the England team anytime soon. When asked about his availability, Carsley stated in a press conference that Greenwood was not being considered for selection. It seems that the interim manager has other options in mind for the team.
On Saturday, Carsley will lead his first game as England's interim manager, and former England and Marseille player, Chris Waddle, believes that Carsley will be keeping an eye on Greenwood's progress, even if he is not currently able to select him for the team.
Waddle praised Greenwood, saying that he is a "very good player" and noted that he has been performing exceptionally well since joining Marseille. He also mentioned that the new England manager will surely be taking notice of Greenwood's performance. Waddle also acknowledged that the French league is not as strong as other major leagues in Europe, such as the Premier League, La Liga, or the Bundesliga. However, he believes that Greenwood's current focus should be on continuing to score goals and play well for Marseille.
In August, The Sun reported that Jamaica had approached Greenwood about the possibility of switching his international allegiance to the Caribbean nation. This may be a tempting opportunity for Greenwood, but for now, his focus remains on his club career with Marseille.
As fans eagerly await news about Greenwood's future with the England team, they can continue to follow his journey with Marseille and his former club, Manchester United, for the latest updates and analysis.
