The resolution on Greenwood comes as part of United's comprehensive reflection period, which concluded this week. The review, which also <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/erik-ten-hag-staying-man-utd-finally-make-decision-dutchman-future-following-disappointing-premier-league-season/blt8f1455f765df93b9" target="_blank">confirmed Erik Ten Hag will continue as manager</a>, was overseen by INEOS sporting director Sir Dave Brailsford, sporting CEO Jean-Claude Blanc, and United technical director Jason Wilcox.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Apart from determining Ten Hag's fate, a key focus of the review was the future of Greenwood. <a href="https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2024/06/12/manchester-united-make-mason-greenwood-decision-during-end-of-season-review/" target="_blank">HITC</a> has now reported that United have decided Greenwood will not be <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/why-outcast-mason-greenwood-could-rejoin-man-utd-first-team-squad-powerless-stop-him-explained/blt307e918f9db18ae2" target="_blank">reintegrated into the senior team</a> squad and the club will instead put him on the market. The club has placed a valuation of approximately £50 million ($64m) on Greenwood and has communicated to interested parties their preference for a sale. This decision marks a significant turn in Greenwood's career trajectory, with his future at United now clearly defined by the club's strategic review.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Greenwood spent the past season on loan at Getafe in Madrid, where his performances have reportedly attracted interest from several major European clubs. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mason-greenwood-future-twist-la-liga-giants-emerge-favourites-exiled-man-utd-striker/blt6beee6beafccedb3" target="_blank">Atletico Madrid have shown keen interest in Greenwood</a>, although their immediate priority is securing a No.9, with Girona’s Artem Dovbyk being a target. Despite their interest, a permanent move for Greenwood by Atletico appears unlikely due to financial constraints. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mason-greenwood-transfer-man-utd-join-barcelona-juventus/bltbf43deb2253ca639" target="_blank">Barcelona also expressed admiration </a>for Greenwood’s abilities during his loan spell in Spain. However, their transfer priorities lie elsewhere, specifically in acquiring Athletic Club's Nico Williams. This leaves the door open for other potential suitors.In addition to an outright sale, United are also open to the idea of another loan move. However, they prefer a structured loan deal that includes mechanisms to make the transfer permanent if certain performance-related conditions are met. This approach would ensure United retains control over Greenwood’s future while providing flexibility in the transfer market. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/juventus-bid-mason-greenwood-offer-man-utd-asking-price/blt3fd7388b19431ab1" target="_blank">Juventus and Atletico Madrid have both entered into discussions </a>with United regarding a possible loan.

DID YOU KNOW?

Recognising the likelihood of a loan move, United are going to trigger a one-year option on Greenwood’s contract. This extension will tie him to Old Trafford until 2026, ensuring that United retain leverage in any future negotiations regarding his transfer. For now, United have set the stage for a summer of significant changes, with Greenwood’s departure representing just one aspect of a broader strategic overhaul aimed at restoring the club’s competitive edge in both domestic and European competitions.
