Mason Greenwood wants to repay Man Utd ‘debt’ and would snub Barcelona move if Old Trafford stay becomes available

Ratcliffe has spoken of the desire to "understand the facts, not the hype", as a potential softening of the ground towards a potential return for Greenwood. The striker was not expected to play for United again after he was arrested in January 2022 on charges of attempted rape and several other offences. Now, The Sunreports that Greenwood would be unwilling to move to Barcelona if United were interested, as he feels he owes a "debt" to the Old Trafford club.

Reports claim that both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are interested in signing Greenwood. As a result, United have placed a new price tag on the striker of €40 million (£34m/$43m). United may face fierce criticism if they do pocket a major fee for the striker, given his previous behaviour.

Since joining Getafe, Greenwood has made 24 appearances, scoring seven goals and registering five assists. In his time at United, he scored 35 goals in 129 appearances.

The striker could next be in action for the Spanish club against Barcelona this weekend, in a fixture that could potentially be billed as an audition for his future employers. They will then face Las Palmas at home next weekend.
