The news that Mason Greenwood will not continue at Manchester United has generated mixed reactions from the fans, especially those who wanted him released.
The forward has not played for the club for almost two years after his partner Harriet Robson published public evidence of sexual and physical assault against him.
Greenwood had all charges dropped against him in March by the Crown Prosecutor, but the club also conducted an internal investigation before deciding on his future.
As reported by Express UK, club CEO Richard Arnold was ready to sanction a return for the academy star, which head coach Erik ten Hag was also open to, but public outrage reversed the decision.
