A Last-Minute Twist in the Transfer Saga
In a dramatic turn of events, Marseille has stepped in to disrupt Lazio’s almost sealed deal for Manchester United’s Mason Greenwood. Despite nearing a £30million agreement with the Italian club, United’s higher valuation has given the French team the edge to swoop in with a tempting bid.
Greenwood’s Old Trafford Exit Looms
Inside sources have confirmed that a contract offer has been laid out for Greenwood by Marseille, signaling a likely end to his stint with the Premier League heavyweights. Manchester United are keen on a permanent move for the striker, aiming to finalize his departure in the upcoming transfer window.
Loan Spell Success and United’s Profit Push
After a loan period at Getafe where Greenwood notched up 10 goals in 36 appearances, the 22-year-old’s contract with Manchester United is ticking down, with next summer marking its end. This transfer window presents the last chance for United to capitalize on the young talent’s worth.
Greenwood’s On-Field Prowess
Despite his age and off-field issues, Greenwood’s capabilities are not in question. With a solid record of 35 goals and 12 assists in 129 matches for United, his knack for scoring and creating opportunities is evident. His adaptability in the forward line adds further appeal to his profile.
Marseille’s Strategic Play
Under the guidance of their new manager Roberto De Zerbi, Marseille views Greenwood as a multifaceted asset. His potential arrival could bolster their attacking options and inject versatility into their squad.
Sancho Also on the United Exit List
Greenwood might not be the only young star on the way out of Old Trafford, as Jadon Sancho is also rumored to be on the market. Following a clash with manager Erik ten Hag, United could be facing a significant loss if they decide to part ways with the winger.
