Club Fans 'Protest' Greenwood Signing

Club Fans 'Protest' Greenwood Signing

Some fans have made it clear they do not want their club to sign Manchester United's Mason Greenwood.

The club reportedly close to signing Manchester United's Mason Greenwood could be in for a difficult time amid fans protesting the striker's potential arrival.

Reports suggest that the 22-year-old is closing in on a move to Ligue 1 outfit Olympique Marseille after the two clubs reached an agreement over a transfer.

The news broke on Tuesday night that United had accepted an offer from the French side, although the player himself still needs to approve the switch.

Some Marseille supporters, meanwhile, have started a #GreenwoodNotWelcome hashtag on social media as they call for the club to make a U-turn in their pursuit to land his signature.

According to Goal, a statement on OM Forum, a fan-run website, reads: "At a time when negotiations for the arrival of Mason Greenwood are announced as becoming increasingly heated, it seems necessary to explain, once again and before the damage becomes irreversible, why this transfer seems inconceivable in view of the values displayed by the club and why it would mean for many of us a red line that would irreparably damage the passion that we have for this club."

This comes after Greenwood was arrested in January 2022 on suspicion of attempted rape, engaging in controlling behaviour and assault.

The forward later saw his charges dropped, but that has not stopped United in deciding the one-time England international should continue his career elsewhere.

Marseille's new manager Roberto De Zerbi, meanwhile, has insisted he would protect Greenwood should a deal between the two clubs be finalised.
