Richard Arnold, the outgoing CEO, rejected the decision to allow Greenwood to reintegrate into the team at the start of the season. The striker quickly joined Getafe on a season-long loan.
In a statement following the investigation, Man United said they did not expect Greenwood to play for the club again. However, the future of the English player is likely to have big changes.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe will take control of the sports segment when completing the acquisition of 25% of Man Utd’s shares in the next 6 weeks. After that, the 71-year-old will decide Greenwood’s fate.Fabrizio Romano said no decision has been made but Ratcliffe has discussed and will further analyze Greenwood’s situation.
Specifically, Romano affirmed: “According to what I hear at the moment, there has not been any decision about Greenwood. Jim Ratcliffe’s current priority is the board of directors, about the club structure. Therefore, he He does many different things not with just one player. Same with Greenwood, the situation is not clear.
But in general, this is something that will be discussed in the second phase of the season from March, April. Then they will make a decision during that time and not now.”
At this time, Man United wants Greenwood to focus on Getafe and return to playing his best football. Greenwood’s girlfriend and children moved with him to Madrid.
