MANCHESTER UNITED are yet to make a decision on the future of Mason Greenwood.

A return to Old Trafford for the 22-year-old remains a possibility.

Fabrizio Romano reports that Ineos have not made a verdict on Greenwood despite internal discussions taking place.

However, Man Utd are open to considering transfer bids and they could cash-in this summer.

New chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe was asked about Greenwood’s future last month and he said: “We will make a decision. I don’t know if he could still have a future.

“All I can do is talk about the principle of how we will approach decisions like that.

“Is he the right type of footballer? Are we happy with that? Is he a good person or not?

“Greenwood is a Manchester United footballer and we are in charge of football. 

“So the answer is it’s quite clear we have to make a decision. 

“There is no decision that’s been made. He’s on loan obviously but he’s not the only one. 

“The process will be – understand the facts not the hype and then try and come to a fair decision on the basis of values – which is basically whether he is a good guy or not. 

“Could he play sincerely for Manchester United well and would we be comfortable with it and the fans be comfortable with it?

“I can talk about the principle. The principle is the important one because we will have other issues going forwards. 

“You are dealing with young people who have not always been brought up in the best circumstances, who have a lot of money and don’t always have the guidance they should have. 

“What we need to do when we have issues like that is to understand the 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.”

Greenwood is currently on loan in Spain with Getafe and he has scored eight goals in 26 games this season.

They are impressed by his performances but may struggle to afford him amid interest from Barcelona and several other LaLiga sides like Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid.

Greenwood has not featured for United since he was suspended after being arrested on suspicion of rape and sexual assault in January 2022.

All charges were subsequently dropped.
