Manchester United will not sell Mason Greenwood
According to ESPN (h/t Daily Star), Manchester United have no intention to sell Mason Greenwood in order to lure Jadon Sancho to Old Trafford.
United are big fans of the Bundesliga star and are increasingly confident of landing him in the summer (h/t Daily Star).
One of Dortmund’s prized jewels, they intend to make the best of selling Sancho. One such attempt was made by asking Mason Greenwood to be included as part of a deal (h/t Daily Star).
United, however, put foot their foot down and refused to sell the 18-year-old. The youngster has impressed in the first team and is tipped for great things at United (h/t Daily Star).
Greenwood has made 40 appearances for the Red Devils since making his first-team debut in 2018. During his stint with the first-team, he has scored an impressive 12 goals and 4 assists. A versatile attacker, he is capable of playing anywhere along the front line.
The class of 2018?
The 18-year-old holds the record for being United’s youngest goalscorer in Europe. He set the mark of 17 years and 353 days when he scored against Astana in the UEFA Europa League this season.
United are so keen to keep the player that immediately after shutting the door on a move to Dortmund, the club immediately offered him a new contract (h/t Daily Star).
This should make United’s stance on the matter clear, therefore ending any speculation on the youngster’s future.
