The former Manchester United star came back in great shape for pre-season. Greenwood is in great shape after his vacation, having already scored four goals in two friendly matches, including a hat -trick against the Dutch team of Excelsior Maassluis.

Greenwood had a first dream season in France last season after his final departure from Manchester United. He scored 22 goals in all competitions for Marseille and narrowly missed the Ligue 1 gold shoe against Ousmane Dembélé.
