Transfer vijesti i glasine: Mason Greenwood definitivno napušta Manchester United?
Until Man United decide what’s happening with Erik ten Hag, player matters will need to take a back seat. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his board have a number of issues which will need resolving in a timely manner this summer, in order that the club can move forward as one ahead of the 2024/25 campaign. Against all the odds, ten Hag oversaw a brilliant FA Cup final win against rivals, Man City, thus ensuring European football – albeit in the Europa League – next season. If he, or his replacement, want to have any chance of silverware domestically or on the continent, then investment in the squad is a must. As is clarifying the status of players such as the out-of-favour Mason Greenwood, who spent last season on loan at Spanish side, Getafe. Away from the spotlight and intrusiveness of the English media, the 22-year-old seemed to have enjoyed a spectacular season with the south Madrid-based side, and won the club’s Player of the Season award. It’s believed that the player and his family would like to remain in the Spanish capital, though Getafe might not get things all their own way. That’s because, according to HITC, Atletico Madrid have emerged as favourites to sign a player they have apparently been keeping tabs on for a while now. A switch to the Rojiblancos would clearly work for Greenwood seeing as though he wouldn’t need to uproot from his current base. There’s work to be done before any deal can be concluded of course, and there may even still be a possibility that Getafe can secure another loan for the winger. In any event, it’s obvious that Greenwood’s future is away from Old Trafford, and if he can continue on an upward trajectory, despite the obvious historical issues in his personal life, an England recall may not be too far away either.
Do Mančester Junajteda odrede šta se dešava sa Erikom ten Hagom, stvari oko igrača će morati sačekati. Sir Jim Ratcliffe i njegov odbor imaju nekoliko problema koje će trebati riješiti na pravovremen način ovog ljeta, kako bi klub mogao napredovati kao jedno uoči sezone 2024/25. Protiv svih prognoza, ten Hag je nadgledao sjajnu pobjedu u finalu FA kupa protiv rivala, Man Cityja, čime je osigurao evropski fudbal – iako u Evropskoj ligi – naredne sezone. Ako on ili njegov nasljednik žele imati bilo kakvu šansu za osvajanje trofeja nacionalno ili na kontinentu, ulaganje u tim je obavezno. Također je potrebno razjasniti status igrača poput neomiljenog Masona Greenwooda, koji je prošlu sezonu proveo na pozajmici u španskom klubu, Getafeu. Daleko od svjetlosti reflektora i invazivnosti engleskih medija, 22-godišnjak se čini da je uživao u spektakularnoj sezoni sa timom na jugu Madrida, te osvojio nagradu za igrača sezone u klubu. Vjeruje se da igrač i njegova porodica žele ostati u španskoj prijestonici, iako Getafe možda neće dobiti sve ono što žele. Naime, prema HITC-u, Atletico Madrid je izronio kao favorit za potpisivanje igrača za kojeg su već neko vrijeme bili zainteresirani. Prijelaz na Rojiblancose bi jasno bio u korist Greenwooda s obzirom da ne bi trebao mijenjati svoju trenutnu bazu. Naravno, prije nego što se bilo kakav dogovor može postići, potrebno je obaviti određeni posao, i možda čak postoji mogućnost da Getafe uspije obezbijediti još jednu pozajmicu za ovog igrača. U svakom slučaju, očigledno je da je Greenwoodova budućnost udaljena od Old Trafforda, a ukoliko nastavi uzlaznu putanju, uprkos očiglednim istorijskim problemima u njegovom privatnom životu, povratak u reprezentaciju Engleske možda nije tako daleko.
