Mason Greenwood to go out on loan again? Man Utd in talks over a second temporary transfer amid impressive displays at Getafe

As Greenwood nears the end of a season on loan at Getafe, The Athletic has reported that conversations about the forward heading back to the Spanish club for a second year are underway. Getafe are unlikely to sign Greenwood on a permanent deal, and United, while preferring to sell, are expected to consider another loan if they are unable to secure an "acceptable fee". The likes of Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Juventus have all been linked.

Failure to sell Greenwood this summer could result in United triggering an option in his contract to extend it by another 12 months until 2026, thereby stopping the possibility of losing the 22-year-old as a free agent next year. But the fierce backlash the club faced amid their initial plan to reintegrate him last year makes it unlikely Greenwood will ever play for United again, despite Sir Jim Ratcliffe not fully shutting the door.

Greenwood has managed 16 goals and assists in 32 appearances across all competitions for Getafe this season - including eight goals in La Liga.

Despite his impressive displays at Getafe, the accusations of assault, attempted rape, and controlling and coercive behaviour that were levied at Greenwood before the case was dropped may prevent some teams from attempting to sign him. His future is very much still up in the air.
