Manchester United would find it difficult to sanction Mason Greenwood’s reintegration next summer without facing backlash similar to a few months ago, according to Danny Mills. The former Premier League star has urged United against inviting such a distraction despite an imminent change at the helm.<\/p>\n
Greenwood was free to resume his football career this season after the Crown Prosecution Service dropped charges of attempted rape, assault and controlling and coercive behaviour against him in February.<\/p>\n
United chief executive Richard Arnold had reportedly informed club staff he planned to announce Greenwood’s return to Erik ten Hag’s squad after a six-month investigation.<\/p>\n
However, severe online backlash seemingly forced a quick U-turn. Arnold insisted he was satisfied that the 22-year-old forward was innocent of the allegations against him but confirmed he would continue his career away from Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
Greenwood joined La Liga side Getafe on a season-long loan on transfer deadline day and is rediscovering his taste for goals in Spain.<\/p>\n
Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s \u00a31.4billion deal to buy 25 per cent of United will include total control of United’s sporting operations, leaving Arnold and football director John Murtough among those at risk of the axe.<\/p>\n

And the optics around that, I think, would be incredibly disruptive.”<\/p>\n United are reportedly in agreeance with Mills. According to GiveMeSport, the Old Trafford giants are set on their Greenwood stance; he won’t play for the club again.<\/p>\n Click <\/strong>here<\/strong> to join our Man Utd WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive Red Devils news.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
