Mason Greenwood's Career Rebuilding Options

Manchester United is set to rebuild Mason Greenwood's football career by sending him overseas. As news broke that United would part ways with Greenwood, agents were quick to speculate on his next move. It is predicted that he will have up to 10 options by the end of the week, with the Saudis potentially making an offer.

While United has avoided reputational damage by allowing Greenwood to pursue opportunities elsewhere, there is a fear of losing him to a rival club. Therefore, the club is determined to retain control over where his next chapter begins. United is looking to agree on a loan-to-permanent transfer overseas, ensuring that his chosen club does not sell him back to a Premier League rival or a major European team.

This cautious approach is necessary for United, as they are giving up a talented player who was valued at over £100 million before his arrest in January last year. Interestingly, Greenwood had already received overseas offers prior to the club's decision. In March, United rejected several offers from undisclosed teams in Turkey, just a month after prosecutors ruled out attempted rape charges against him.
