Manchester United supporters are eagerly anticipating Mason Greenwood’s return to the club after his successful loan spell with Getafe. The 22-year-old winger has had a productive time in Spain, notably scoring two goals in a comfortable victory over Tardienta, adding to his first La Liga goal against Celta Vigo last month. Despite being on loan in Madrid, there are rumors that Greenwood is content with his life in Spain.
Back at Old Trafford, pressure is mounting on manager Erik Ten Hag due to the team’s disappointing start to the season. United faced a major setback when they were eliminated from the Carabao Cup, a competition they had won the previous year, following a demoralizing 3-0 home defeat to Newcastle. This marked their eighth loss in 15 matches this season.
Anxious fans are vocalizing their desire for Mason Greenwood to swiftly return to the club, as reported by the Daily Star. Social media is abuzz with comments from fans, with some passionately exclaiming, “Bring back my star boy,” and others suggesting that Greenwood is outperforming the current forwards in the Manchester United squad.
Despite the clamor for Greenwood’s return, there are some fans who remain skeptical and believe he should be kept far away from United. This skepticism stems from Greenwood’s past legal issues. In January of the previous year, he was arrested on charges of attempted rape, assault, and coercive control. However, these charges were later dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service in February.
Following these legal troubles, Manchester United conducted an internal investigation and decided that Greenwood could not continue his career at Old Trafford. Subsequently, he joined Getafe shortly before the end of the summer transfer window deadline and has since scored three goals in eight appearances for the Spanish club.
Sources suggest that Greenwood is hoping to remain at Getafe for the foreseeable future. The warm reception he has received from both players and fans has significantly boosted his confidence. He appears genuinely happy and is determined to focus on his playing career, without dwelling on what lies far ahead.
