Barcelona wants to recruit Mason Greenwood from Manchester United. He has shown great sincerity. He even prepared the No. 10 jersey that Lionel Messi wore. The Sun of the U.K. reported on the 30th (Korea time) that “Barcelona is willing to recruit Greenwood for 40 million pounds (about 66.2 billion won) along with Messi’s iconic No. 10 jersey.”
Greenwood was once regarded as the best talent in Manchester United. Notably, he scored 10 goals in 31 matches in the 2019-2020 Premier League alone, scoring double-digit goals. He also scored seven goals and two assists in the 2020-2021 season.
However, he was hampered by problems outside of soccer. The news that he sexually assaulted his girlfriend was reported. Greed’s girlfriend at the time exposed this fact on social media. Later, Manchester police arrested Greenwood on charges of rape and assault.
Of course, Manchester United has taken action as well. Greenwood was officially excluded from the squad, and sponsorships such as Nike and EA were cut off. Despite being cleared of charges due to insufficient evidence in the first half of this year, Manchester United has decided not to continue Greenwood’s move. 파친코
Greenwood, who became an independent, made a fresh start in Getafe, Spain, as a loan form. The lease on the Getafe was good. He is playing impressively. Greenwood, who started playing in mid-September, not only scored five goals, but also completely regained his old form. Of course, he received attention from other clubs. Big clubs also kept an eye on Greenwood. Among them, Spain’s La Liga has great interest.
Barcelona, in particular, is showing keen interest in the deal. Media outlets reported that “Getafe is keen to make a full deal with Greenwood.” However, Barcelona plans to bid £40 million, along with the legendary No. 10 jersey. That number was returned to Ansu Fati when Messi left Barcelona last August. However, Fati transferred to Brighton on loan in September this year and currently has no owner of No. 10.”
