After months of uncertainty around his career, Mason Greenwood is now at the center of transfer speculation. The 21-year-old is set to leave Manchester United, opening up the doors for an impending transfer. As per reports, a number of clubs have already sounded interest in the player. Although, United could end up earning nothing by facilitating a deal for their academy graduate.
Prior to being charged with heinous offenses, Greenwood was on the cusp of cementing a starting spot at Old Trafford. And as such, it comes as no surprise that the forward has attracted a number of suitors for his signature. Despite the inquiries, United is unlikely to profit from his departure.
