The Marseille striker Mason Greenwood reacted to an injustice with a big rant.

The former Manchester United winger, who arrived at the Vélodrome stadium in the summer of 2024, had a first productive season in France. He has 18 goals and four assists.

The 23-year-old's performances allowed Marseille to stay in the race in second place-behind Paris Saint-Germain, reigning champion-and qualification for the Champions League. He has signed several spectacular goals this season.

Mason Greenwood has an exemplary season

Greenwood was however forgotten in the list of nominees for the title of player of the year in Ligue 1 – no Marseille player having been rewarded. And this, despite the fact that the English international, a selection to his credit – who joins Jamaica – is second in the Golden Shoe race behind the PSG superstar, Ousmane Dembélé.

Exemplary figures, but no appointment

He is not too worried about missing an individual price – having been appointed player of the year by Getafe last season during a loan in Spain – and Greenwood told journalists: ” I don't worry. I simply focus on the qualification of Marseille for the Champions League. “

His teammate Geoffrey Kondogbia declared about the failure of the star of Olympique de Marseille to convince those responsible for the development of the appointments: “ We laughed a bit. Honestly, I don't know what to say. It is a choice, and we must respect it. We have our own opinion on our players and our coach, and that is the most important. We don't discuss taste. We would have liked to be there, because it is always a pleasure. ”

Greenwood is not in the running for the price of the best player of the year, this award will be disputed by the stars of PSG Dembélé, Désiré Doué, Vitinha and Achraf Hakimi, as well as by the playmaker Lyonnais Rayan Cherki.
