Three major Spanish teams are battling it out to sign Mason Greenwood in 2024, according to The Sun.

The three teams in question are Valencia, Real Sociedad and Sevilla, who have all been impressed by Greenwood’s form since he moved on loan to La Liga side Getafe this past summer.

Greenwood has scored four goals in 11 appearances for Getafe and largely impressed with his overall performances.

He is unlikely to ever play again for Manchester United, who will need to find him a permanent home at the end of the season.

Greenwood joined Getafe on loan during the summer after United concluded their investigation into the criminal charges he was facing last year, which have since been dropped.

United announced that Greenwood would look to continue his career away from Old Trafford, having not played a game since January 2022 following his arrest by police.

Man Utd investigation on Greenwood

The 22-year-old was initially earmarked by United for a return to the first team after an internal investigation by the club but these plans were shelved following a negative reaction to the speculation and Greenwood was eventually told to leave the club.

However, with his contract due to expire in 2025, United had never explicitly stated what the plans were for Greenwood upon his return from loan, with the club focusing on the immediate steps to continue his career rather than the long-term path.

Thus, the door is still not completely shut at Manchester United - even if the bad PR from any possible return makes it difficult.

Continuing his career at a higher level team in Spain is the most likely outcome for 2024-25, and Valencia, Real Sociedad and Sevilla all fit the bill.

Sevilla won the Europa League last season, while Real Sociedad are doing well in the Champions League this term and have already qualified for the knockouts.
