Man Utd make progress in Marseille talks over Mason Greenwood sale

The 22-year-old forward, who has one senior cap for England, could be on his way to France after spending last season on loan with Spanish club Getafe, where he played 33 league matches and scored eight goals.

He has been linked with a number of other European clubs this summer, including Lazio and Juventus, but Marseille are now understood to be in pole position to sign him.

Greenwood was suspended by United on January 30, 2022 over allegations relating to a young woman after images and videos were posted online.

He faced charges including attempted rape and assault but the Crown Prosecution Service announced in February last year that the case had been discontinued.

United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe said in February this year that the club would take a decision on Greenwood's future in the summer.

"It's quite clear we have to make a decision. There is no decision that's been made," the Ineos founder said.

"We will make a decision and we will justify it one way or the other."
