British media said MU is cautious about the prospect of Greenwood playing again for the “Red Devils” in the future. Talk Sport revealed that the backlash from some fans, especially female fans, caused the team to consider bringing Greenwood back.

Many staff members of the club as well as the MU women’s team opposed the idea of Greenwood continuing to wear the red shirt of Manchester. In addition, pressure from sponsors is also the reason why MU does not want to let Greenwood play for the team.

This poses a difficult problem for MU leadership. MU’s current contract with Greenwood will end in June 2025. Greenwood is likely to play for Getafe until the end of this season. After that period, the board of directors will consider the possibility of selling the English striker outright to avoid losing the player completely.

Another option considered by MU is to insert a clause to buy back Greenwood, in case of liquidation of the player next summer. In addition, the Old Trafford team can also set terms for receiving commissions in subsequent transfer deals.

Greenwood is now receiving interest from many big teams in Europe. The striker born in 2001 has had a brilliant performance in La Liga recently. After 15 appearances for Getafe in all competitions this season, Greenwood scored 5 goals and had 4 assists. He played an important role in helping Getafe continuously surprise.
