Many people questioned Mason Greenwood’s decision to join Getafe on loan from Man United last September. However, the 22-year-old knew that, after the rape accusations, most doors were closed for him, and a step back in his career was both inevitable and necessary. Now, it turned out that a step back was actually a step towards the right direction since an excellent season with the Spanish side could completely revive the Englishman’s career.Man United ready to spend 100,000,000 on center defenders duoAlthough Greenwood has been at Old Trafford since the age of six, the club decided that after everything that had happened, there was no longer a place for him. Such a decision was the signal for many to knock on Manchester United’s door.

At the press conference on Tuesday, he hinted that the deal could be realized soon. Even though the Italian did not directly confirm the club’s interest in Greenwood, reading between the lines, it was quite clear.”Mason is a world-class player but we have not recruited him yet. I don’t know what happened but I am not used to get involved in my players’ private life. But if he comes here, you have to know that I treat all my players like my sons. I can tell them off in private but I would never attack them in public,” stated De Zerbi.##NAJAVA_MECA_8203995##
