I won’t trouble Manchester United anymore — Mason Greenwood

“I will not disturb Manchester United. I’m set to leave” — Mason Greenwood.

Mason Greenwood has announced his exit from Manchester United via a statement to the club and its fans following the conclusion of investigation in his sexual scandal case.

The 21-year-old cut himself the controversial figure at the club after an audio was leaked on the internet alleging the case of domestic abuse on his partner, Harriet Robson.

The high profile case resulted in debates surrounding the Manchester United star’s future with the club, with so many speculations and rumors resulting in the aftermath.

Reports had even gone on to allege the England international’s reintegration into the squad, which in itself resulted in another controversy, with key staffers of the club threatening to resign.

However, on Monday, 21st of August, the Old Trafford hierarchy released a statement, announcing the 21-year-old Manchester United wonderkid will be leaving the club with immediate effect.

With a statement via its website, Manchester United stated;

“Our process commenced in February 2023, following all charges against Mason being dropped.

“Throughout, we have taken into account the wishes, rights and perspective of the alleged victim along with the club’s standards and values, and sought to collate as much information and context as possible.

“This has required us to proceed with sensitivity and care to obtain evidence not in the public domain, including from those with direct knowledge of the case.

“Based on the evidence available to us, we have concluded that the material posted online did not provide a full picture and that Mason did not commit the offences in respect of which he was originally charged.

“That said, as Mason publicly acknowledges today, he has made mistakes which he is taking responsibility for.

“All those involved, including Mason, recognise the difficulties with him recommencing his career at Manchester United.

“It has therefore been mutually agreed that it would be most appropriate for him to do so away from Old Trafford, and we will now work with Mason to achieve that outcome.”

Reacting to being expelled from the club, Mason Greenwood released his statement to the club, stating:

“I will not disturb Manchester United. I’m set to leave,” Greenwood announced.

“I want to start by saying I understand that people will judge me because of what they have seen and heard on social media, and I know people will think the worst.

“I was brought up to know that violence or abuse in any relationship is wrong, I did not do the things I was accused of, and in February I was cleared of all charges.

“However, I fully accept I made mistakes in my relationship, and I take my share of responsibility for the situations which led to the social media post.

“I am learning to understand my responsibilities to set a good example as a professional footballer, and I’m focused on the big responsibility of being a father, as well as a good partner.

“Today’s decision has been part of a collaborative process between Manchester United, my family and me.

“The best decision for us all, is for me to continue my football career away from Old Trafford, where my presence will not be a distraction for the club. I thank the club for their support since I joined aged seven. There will always be a part of me which is United.

“I am enormously grateful to my family and all my loved ones for their support, and it is now for me to repay the trust those around me have shown. I intend to be a better footballer, but most importantly a good father, a better person, and to use my talents in a positive way on and off the pitch.”
