Mason Greenwood timeline laid out as Man Utd weigh up three options

Mason Greenwood is not expected to play for Manchester United before the end of the season, according to reports, with the club hoping to conduct a full-scale investigation into the striker before making a final decision on his future.

Greenwood has been suspended by the Red Devils since January last year following his arrest. Charges of attempted rape, assault and coercive behaviour against the 21-year-old were dropped earlier this month after witnesses withdrew from the case.

The Crown Prosecution Service claimed they had a duty to do so, given that there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction. Despite Greenwood being free of all police charges, he remains suspended by United, who are set to finish their internal investigation before the end of the season.

According to The Daily Star, Greenwood is not expected to turn out in a United shirt in 2022/23 as club chiefs weigh up various potential courses of action. The player himself denies any wrongdoing.

United boss Erik ten Hag is reported to have spoken with Greenwood since allegations against him were dropped. His player profile remains on the club’s website and their name is still in his Instagram bio as they ponder what to do next.

Greenwood also has Nike in his bio, despite the brand cutting ties with him in 2022 and reinforcing that he is no longer one of their sponsored athletes. Should he be forced to jump ship, the Chinese Super League is thought to be one of the options on the table.
