Mason Greenwood has spoken on camera for the first time since his loan move to Getafe.<\/p>\n
The Manchester United exile, 21, joined the La Liga club in a deal until the end of the season on Transfer Deadline Day after his boyhood club announced he wouldn't play for them again last month.<\/p>\n
He travelled to Spain over the weekend and visited their training ground for the first time on Monday (September 4), posing for pictures in his new kit.<\/p>\n
Greenwood also recorded a video that was shared on social media. "Hi Getafe fans, it's Mason here. I'm so happy to be here and I can't wait to get started," he said, before putting his thumb up to the camera.<\/p>\n

Ana Bella Estevez of the Ana Bella Foundation told The Mirror: "Getafe executives should never have hired Mason Greenwood and should immediately overturn their decision.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n "If you're a public-facing organisation like Getafe there is no excuse to take a neutral stance on violence against women – you must take moral responsibility."<\/p>\n Getafe manager Jose Bordalas defended their decision to sign him after his side's 2-1 defeat away at Real Madrid on Saturday.<\/p>\n He told reporters: \u201cIt is a very delicate situation to trivialise this issue. Everyone knows what happened and the appropriate measures were taken, obviously, we can only talk about football.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cRegarding the other issues, I believe that the people and the relevant authorities did what they had to do and everyone knows how it ended with a non-conviction sentence therefore he is a free person, a footballer of a very high level and who arrives at Getafe with enormous enthusiasm and that we are obviously going to help him so that he recovers back to his best level.\u201d<\/p>\n Reports emerging in recent days have claimed Greenwood will be living in an \u00a38,000-a-month villa which United will be footing the bill for, and that there's a break clause in his loan which means Getafe can cut it short in January if they don't feel it's working out.<\/p>\n
