Mason Greenwood latest news LIVE - Forward to leave Manchester United

Manchester United are expected to be arriving at a decision on Mason Greenwood, with the forward having been suspended by the club from all training and matches since charges of assault were brought against him in January 2021.

Last week it was revealed the club had concluded their own internal investigation but while United had intended to announce their decision before their first Premier League game of the season, the process has taken longer than they anticipated. They also planned to explain their findings to stakeholders, including sponsors and commercial partners, the women’s team – some of whom were still at the World Cup in Australia until the weekend – and fans’ groups.

A final decision on Greenwood is expected soon though. Follow latest updates and news on Man United and Mason Greenwood below:

Mason Greenwood will not play for Manchester United again, club announce

Manchester United do not expect Mason Greenwood to ever play for them again after the club and player concluded it would be inappropriate for him to continue his career at Old Trafford.

United will instead work to find Greenwood a club elsewhere after chief executive Richard Arnold concluded an internal investigation in which he decided the forward did not commit criminal offences and that audio of him sounding as though he was trying to force himself upon a woman did not present the full picture.

Criminal charges of attempted rape, assault occasioning actual bodily harm and controlling and coercive behaviour were dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service in February.

But Arnold determined – and Greenwood agreed – that it would be better if he were to move elsewhere and discussions are continuing as to whether his contract will be terminated or if he should be sold or loaned.

MAN UNITED STATEMENT: Mason Greenwood to leave Old Trafford

15:00 , Karl Matchett

Manchester United has concluded its internal investigation into the allegations made against Mason Greenwood.

Our process commenced in February 2023, following all charges against Mason being dropped. Throughout, we have taken into account the wishes, rights and perspective of the alleged victim along with the club’s standards and values, and sought to collate as much information and context as possible. This has required us to proceed with sensitivity and care to obtain evidence not in the public domain, including from those with direct knowledge of the case.

Based on the evidence available to us, we have concluded that the material posted online did not provide a full picture and that Mason did not commit the offences in respect of which he was originally charged. That said, as Mason publicly acknowledges today, he has made mistakes which he is taking responsibility for.

All those involved, including Mason, recognise the difficulties with him recommencing his career at Manchester United. It has therefore been mutually agreed that it would be most appropriate for him to do so away from Old Trafford, and we will now work with Mason to achieve that outcome.
