Mason Greenwood’s future at Manchester United is expected to be decided before the end of July, according to reports.

The 21-year-old has not appeared for the Premier League team since January 2022.

At the time, he was suspended due to charges of attempted rape, assault, and controlling and coercive behavior.

Those allegations were dropped in February, but Greenwood is still under investigation at Old Trafford.

As he is yet to be invited back to full training at United, he has been working with a private tutor and remains associated with clubs across Europe.

Teams from Turkey and Italy are rumoured to be interested in Greenwood, with former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho, who is now in charge of Serie A side Roma, the most recent to be linked with a loan approach.

The Sun reports that a decision on the future of the one-cap England international will be made by the end of the month.

A source told The Sun: “Jose rang Mason’s dad and also spoke with Mason. He told him the best way out of his current situation is to start playing football — and that eventually all the hassle will fade away.

“Mason was pleased that he got in touch and it has lifted his spirits.

“He wants to get back playing and is just waiting for United to tell him what the future holds.”

Juventus, AC Milan, and Inter are reportedly said to have approached United.

Greenwood was added to the Red Devils’ retained list at the completion of the 2022-23 season and is under contract with the team until 2025.
