Mason Greenwood's professional career had a renaissance this season, when Manchester United decided to loan him to Getafe for him to play there and put an end to an uncomfortable situation of almost a year and a half. For a long time he was suspended by the club's chiefs while the authorities investigated allegations of domestic violence against him. But then the charges were dropped and it was time to make a decision. For some weeks it was rumored that he could return to the squad and the reactions of many fans were negative. So finally his departure to Spain seemed an ideal solution for all parties.

However, now a lot of time has passed and things have changed. The forward showed excellent performances in La Liga, while the Red Devils had problems in that sector of the field, so many began to speculate about his possible return. At the same time, other important clubs in Europe, such as Barcelona, are rumored as possible destinations for him.

But now The Sun assures that, in case there is an offer from the Catalan side, Greenwood could reject it to prioritize another option: his return to Old Trafford. "He believes he has a debt to repay the fans and the manager and would love a second chance. To him, Manchester United is the biggest and best club in the world and if a chance emerged for him to go back he would," said a source close to the player, quoted by the newspaper.

This happens just a few days after Sir Jim Ratcliffe gave his first interview as owner of Manchester United. There, he was asked about Mason's case and left the door open for his return: "You are dealing with young people who have not always been brought up in the best circumstances, who have a lot of money and they don't always have the guidance they should have. What we need to do when we have issues like that is understand real effects, not the hype. Then we need to make a fair decision in the light of the club's values. That's what we need to do and that's how we will deal with it."
