Fabrizio Romano has provided an update about the future of Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood, who’s currently on loan at Getafe.

The youngster is out on loan in Spain until the summer and his future at Old Trafford is uncertain. But Fabrizio Romano has claimed that the club will opt to move him on permanently in the summer, via his YouTube channel.

However, it would be contrary to what Sir Jim Ratcliffe said about the situation recently.

The Ineos chief was asked about Greenwood’s future earlier this week, to which he replied: “He’s a Manchester United footballer, so we are in charge of football.

“So the answer is, ‘Yeah, we have to make decisions’. It’s quite clear we have to make a decision. There is no decision that’s been made.

“He’s on loan obviously, but he’s not the only one. We’ve got one or two footballers that we have to deal with and we have to make a decision, so we will do that.

“The process will be: understand the facts, not the hype, and then try and come to fair decision on the basis of values, which is basically is he a good guy or not? Could he play sincerely for Manchester United well, would we be comfortable with it and would the fans be comfortable with it?”

The disgraced forward has not featured for the Red Devils since being arrested on charges of attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm, but the charges were dropped.

Man Utd suspended the forward when the allegations came to light and they launched an independent investigation into the matter and whether he could feature again for the club. He was eventually loaned to Getafe.
