Ever since his arrest in January 2022, Mason Greenwood's career has been on a downward spiral. The 22-year-old Manchester United player was charged with attempted rape, controlling behaviour, and assault. However, all charges were dropped last February, giving Greenwood a chance to start fresh.
Despite this, Greenwood's parent club made a surprising decision not to reintegrate him into the first-team squad, leading to his loan move to Getafe in Spain. This move has proven to be a successful one, with Greenwood scoring eight goals and providing five assists in 26 appearances.
However, England manager Gareth Southgate has made it clear that Greenwood will not be considered for the Euro 2024 squad. He believes that the young player's presence would be a distraction for the team. Southgate also mentioned that he has not been closely following Greenwood's progress in Spain.
Greenwood has previously been capped once by England in 2020, but he is not in contention to return in the coming months. The striker made his debut against Iceland, but his time with the national team was short-lived. Along with Manchester City's Phil Foden, Greenwood was withdrawn from the squad for breaking Covid quarantine guidelines.
Despite this setback, Greenwood has caught the attention of Jamaica's head coach Heimir Hallgrimsson, who expressed his interest in having him on his team. However, it ultimately depends on Greenwood's decision.
Meanwhile, Manchester United's co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has hinted at a possible return for Greenwood to Old Trafford. However, the club has reportedly valued him at £40million and is in talks with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.
As Greenwood continues to excel in Spain, his future remains uncertain. But for now, he is focused on getting his career back on track and making a name for himself in the football world.
