Erik ten Hag gives update on Mason Greenwood’s future at Manchester United
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has been questioned about Mason Greenwood’s future at the club amid an ongoing internal investigation after criminal charges against him were dropped.
Commenting on the ongoing process in an interview with The Times, via GOAL, Ten Hag is quoted as saying that Greenwood has “showed in the past that he is capable of doing that [scoring goals for the club]”.
However, Ten Hag also emphasised that he will not be the one to decide whether Greenwood is allowed to make what would be a hugely controversial return.
Greenwood scored 22 Premier League goals in 83 appearances across two-and-a-half seasons before he was suspended by United following his arrest in January of last year.
In 2021 he signed a new contract running until 2025 worth a reported £75,000 per week. His last appearance was in the 1-0 win over West Ham in January 2022.
