The idea of Mason Greenwood returning to play for Manchester United is one that many supporters of the club are seemingly unwilling to accept.
When reports surfaced suggesting that Manchester United were preparing a statement to gauge public opinion on the 22-year-old’s potential return, it sparked a massive backlash across social media platforms.
As a consequence, Greenwood was ultimately loaned out to Spanish side Getafe, where he continues to pursue his professional career.
Despite being out of the immediate spotlight at Old Trafford, the young forward remains on Manchester United’s radar.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Paul Mitchell—widely linked with taking charge of sporting operations at United once Sir Jim Ratcliffe finalizes his takeover—was spotted attending Getafe’s match against Cádiz.
His presence at the game likely wasn’t accidental; rather, it appears he was there to evaluate Greenwood’s performance in La Liga.

While the decision may not sit well with a large portion of the fanbase, it would offer insight into the approach and determination of Manchester United’s new leadership
