Man United want to get rid of this star and his future could be in Barcelona

Manchester United are going through a renewal process. Just a few weeks ago the new owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, arrived to take charge of the decisions related to soccer. And his intention is to solve the problems the club has had over the last decade, with expensive signings that did not produce the expected results and disappointing performances in the Premier League and Champions League.

While the priority of the new chiefs will be to raise the level of the team with the arrival of top level stars, to do so it is first necessary to reduce costs and get rid of several players who have not lived up to expectations. In fact, in the January transfer window Donny Van de Beek, Sergio Reguilon, Jadon Sancho and Hannibal Mejbri have already left, while others could follow suit.

But others will wait until next summer. One example is Anthony Martial, whose contract expires on June 30 and is unlikely to renew. However, perhaps the most important case is that of Mason Greenwood. The English forward has been on loan at Getafe since the beginning of the season and his performances there have been very good. Between La Liga and the Copa del Rey he has played 19 games, with 5 goals and 4 assists.

This has attracted the attention of several important clubs in Europe, including Barcelona. The Catalan side have been closely following his performances this season and, according to The Sun, will begin negotiations with Manchester United to buy him. While the transfer figure is unknown for now, it is rumored that it could include a fixed amount and a number of add-ons depending on the number of games he plays for Barcelona and England.

He has a target

The Sun also claims that Mason Greenwood's intention is to return to the English national team. There he played just one game in 2020, but after the problems he had with the law he was not called up again by coach Gareth Southgate. Last year it was even rumored that he could join the Jamaican national team, as other Premier League players have done.
