Why Mason Greenwood will not play for Man Utd this season
Manchester United striker, Mason Greenwood will not play for the club this season, as they continue an internal investigation.
The 21-year-old was suspended by the Premier League club after his arrest in January 2022.
Greenwood recently saw all charges relating to attempted rape, assault and coercive behaviour dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service.
While he has been cleared to resume his professional career, United are still looking into the matter.
The Daily Star reports that the investigation will not be concluded any time soon.
And this means Greenwood is expected to sit out the remainder of the season before a decision is made on his future.
Greenwood has a contract until June 2025 with the Red Devils.

EPL: Can’t cry about it — Arteta on Arsenal’s 1-1 draw at Fulham
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said they cannot “cry about” the 1-1 draw at Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday.
Arteta, however, insisted his team deserved to take all three points.
Raul Jimenez opened the scoring for the hosts in the first half before William Saliba levelled in the 52nd minute.
Speaking after the match, Arteta said: “Gutted that we didn’t win it. We fully deserved to win it. That’s the quality of the opposition, so you cannot cry about it. We generated all the chances but it’s so difficult to attack.”
Arsenal had 70 per cent possession and VAR denied Bukayo Saka what would have been a late winner.

EPL: ‘We started badly’ – Amorim on Man Utd’s 3-2 loss to Nottingham Forest
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has admitted his team did not do enough to beat Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Red Devils suffered back-to-back defeats for the first time under Amorim, losing 3-2 to Nuno Espirito Santo’s men.
Goals from Nikola Milenkovic, Morgan Gibbs-White and Chris Wood moved Forest up to fifth place, with Rasmus Hojlund and Bruno Fernandes getting on the scoresheet for United.
The result leaves United in 13th place, 10 points above relegation places.
Amorim, speaking with BBC Sport, said: “Tough game. We started really bad. The first play we suffered a goal and then it’s hard to try to fight. We then controlled the game and had a lot of situations.
“We improved the movement in the last third. We managed to draw the game and then, at halftime, we were ready to go for the win and then started really bad. Two goals. Then we tried a lot of things with not a lot of quality.
“We didn’t have many situations to score. Tough game in a tough moment but we have to continue the job.”
