Greenwood’s potential return divides Manchester United fans
The possibility of Mason Greenwood returning to Manchester United remains highly controversial. When reports surfaced that the club might release a statement to gauge public reaction to the idea, fan backlash erupted across social media.
As a result, Greenwood was loaned out to Spanish side Getafe, where he is currently playing.
However, according to Mundo Deportivo, he hasn’t been forgotten by the club. Paul Mitchell—tipped to take on a senior football operations role at United under Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s new regime—was recently spotted attending Getafe’s match against Cádiz.
It’s unlikely that Mitchell’s presence was a coincidence, and it suggests he may have been evaluating Greenwood’s performance.
If Mitchell does step into the sporting director role and has been tasked with assessing Greenwood, it would reflect a bold and potentially divisive move by the club’s new leadership.
Though this decision is unlikely to win universal support, it would reveal something about the character and direction Sir Jim intends to bring to the club’s future.
Greenwood’s situation remains one of the most emotionally charged issues facing United’s fanbase today.
