Mason Greenwood will be one of the main players in this summer transfer window. The 22-year-old striker is on a successful loan at Getafe this season (36 matches, 10 goals, 6 assists), making a complete comeback on the other side of the Pyrenees, and therefore attracting the interest of more upscale clubs. Manchester United’s management knows that they will be able to collect a big check this summer.
In recent days, there was talk of an offer from Olympique de Marseille, exceeding the 20 million euros offered by Lazio, the other club very keen to get the Mancunian. Despite his background and this story of violence and sexual abuse against his partner, provoking strong reactions on social networks, the player is unanimous internally at Marseille. The Italian press revealed new details on this case this Monday.
Everything should be decided between Lazio and OM
In the Corriere dello Sport, we learn that Manchester United will try to settle the player’s future very quickly this week. Lazio has made an offer of 20 million euros, but there is a resale percentage of 40 to 50%; so a second potential big check for the Red Devils. The latter would have also revised their demands downwards a little in recent hours, with a price set for Greenwood which has gone from 40 to 35 million euros.
The Italian media confirms the very serious interest of Olympique de Marseille, and explains that we are in the decisive hours of this saga. A decision will be made during the week – the Manchester United management will unsurprisingly choose the best offer financially – while the 22-year-old striker trains alone on his side while waiting for the outcome.
