Joining Getafe with a 1-year loan contract, striker Mason Greenwood is on his way to rediscovering his career and determined to play for Man United in the future.
On the last day of the 2023 summer market, Mason Greenwood was sent by MU to Getafe on loan. The Old Trafford team still pays more than half of the £75k/week salary for the English striker. In addition, they also rent out an apartment for Greenwood for £8,000/month and provide a 24/7 Spanish interpreter.
It is unclear how Man United will plan Greenwood’s future, as the loan contract with Getafe is valid until June 2024, while Greenwood’s current contract with MU is until the summer of 2025. Meaning, the Red Devils will have to find a way out for young stars again next summer, if not to liquidate the contract.
As for Mason Greenwood, this player is determined to prove himself in the La Liga environment, when facing the world’s biggest teams, Real Madrid and Barcelona, as a way to return to Old Trafford. A source said: “Greenwood wants to show he can face pressure and not give up hope of playing for MU again.
He wants to repay the trust the club has given. Greenwood knows he has a lot to prove on and off the football field. He is very excited to play again and wants to score a lot of goals.
Greenwood is at another club on loan, but Man United is still his parent team. The villa the club rented for Greenwood is large enough for his family and friends to visit at any time. Greenwood has a solid support network around him, and MU will not abandon him.”
Coach Getafe shared about the striker born in 2001: “We all know what happened to Greenwood, but right now we should only talk about football. He is an innocent person like all of us. Greenwood is a high-level player and Getafe will help him regain his best condition.”
In the next match after the September national team gathering, Getafe will play at home and welcome Osasuna on September 17 – which could be the time Mason Greenwood makes his debut for the La Liga team.
