Getafe confirm Manchester United loanee Mason Greenwood's transfer stance

Getafe president Angel Torres has insisted Mason Greenwood is 'crazy' to stay at his club amid speculation regarding his future.

The 22-year-old joined Getafe on loan from United in the summer and has bagged seven goals and five assists for the club so far this season. Greenwood was suspended by United in January 2022 amid allegations of attempted rape, assault and controlling and coercive behaviour.

A lengthy investigation into the case then followed, with the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) dropping all charges against Greenwood in February 2023.
