Mason Greenwood: Former United star’s departure takes a step closer Former Manchester United star Mason Greenwood’s time at Olympique de Marseille looks to be coming to an end. Post-United career Greenwood played 129 times for Manchester United, scoring 35 goals. After legal trouble in 2022, Manchester United suspended the player and, even after his charges were dropped, they loaned him out to Getafe in Spain in the summer of 2023.
