According to recent reports, it seems that Mason Greenwood is facing a fresh decision regarding his long-term future at Manchester United. After spending the season on loan at Getafe in La Liga, the 22-year-old is now being targeted by Fenerbahce for a potential move. However, it's been said that Greenwood has some reservations about playing under the club's new head coach, Jose Mourinho.
Some may recall that Greenwood has not played for United since his arrest in January of 2022. The charges against him were ultimately dropped, but the club received major backlash when they considered reintegrating him back into their squad under Erik ten Hag. It seems that United are now open to selling Greenwood this summer, as they have already received interest from various teams in Europe and the Premier League. One of these interested parties is apparently Fenerbahce.
It was just this week that Mourinho was unveiled as Fenerbahce's new head coach, but according to the reports, Greenwood is not too keen on working with the Portuguese manager. Interestingly, Greenwood caught Mourinho's eye during a training session back when he was still a part of United's academy. United's former academy manager, Nicky Butt, recalled that Mourinho had asked him about young players and even requested for Mason to train with the first team.
However, at the time, Greenwood was only 15 years old and still in school. Butt explained that there were rules and regulations that prevented them from bringing him up to train. Nevertheless, Greenwood eventually made his first-team debut under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in March of 2019. Now, there are reports claiming that Greenwood has verbally agreed to join Juventus, and United are willing to accept a £30m fee for the striker.
It's worth noting that Greenwood only has a year left on his contract with United, and the club is not willing to let him leave on a free transfer next summer. Clearly, there are some big decisions to be made regarding Mason Greenwood's future, and it seems that he has some reservations about working with Jose Mourinho. Only time will tell where Greenwood will end up, but one thing is for sure - there are plenty of teams interested in securing his talents.
