Manchester United had a successful first season under the reign of Erik Ten Hag by finishing third in the Premier League and ending the club’s six-year trophy drought by winning the EFL Cup. With the Red Devils gearing up for their pre-season campaign, the Dutchman is optimistic about landing his priority signings before the start of the season. Despite numerous new arrivals on the cards, the supporters are still waiting for clarity on the Mason Greenwood situation.
Some supporters were surprised by the inclusion of the Englishman in the club’s official list of retained players for the 2023-24 season. With the new season approaching thick and fast, Manchester United’s hierarchy has to make an important call on the 21-year-old forward.
Which Italian club is Mason Greenwood linked to?
Erik Ten Hag is looking to strengthen various areas of the pitch, but not more so than the attacking department. The club executives have had preliminary talks with Atalanta over a possible deal for 20-year-old Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund. Several reports suggest the Red Devils are interested in sending Mason Greenwood out on loan to Atalanta as a part of the Hojlund deal.
Earlier this year, Manchester United released an official statement that said that the club would conduct its investigation before determining the next steps. Several reports suggest that the Red Devils are aiming to decide on Mason Greenwood’s future before the start of the new season, and a loan move is the most probable outcome for the English attacker.

There is no denying the fact that Mason Greenwood was considered a generational talent during his playing days. The 21-year-old academy graduate has played 129 matches in Manchester United colours, scoring 35 goals and providing 12 assists. With uncertainty around his future, the Englishman has been seen training with his club teammate Anthony Elanga and Udinese player James Abankwah in Dubai.
With the new season around the corner, it is evident that the club’s hierarchy has a plan set for the English forward. In continuation of their article on Mason Greenwood, The Sun reported that one of the sources said “He’ll be playing football somewhere this season.”

Although it depends upon the findings of the internal investigation which is being conducted by the club’s executives, the supporters seem to have different opinions as to whether the 21-year-old forward should be seen playing at Old Trafford in the future. The big question which arises is that can the club find an appropriate solution that can satisfy all parties involved.
