“Since Ruben Amorim has been asking me to bring him back to Old Trafford, I’m going to bring the young lad back. I saw him play a few times and he’s an amazing talent, it’ll be a shame to let his go to waste.” – Mason Greenwood finds a renewed opportunity at Manchester United under the leadership of Ruben Amorim as Sir Jim Ratcliffe is ready for the move.

The notion of Mason Greenwood returning to play for Manchester United seems to be an idea many fans of the club seemingly refuse to entertain.

 

When it appeared that the Red Devils were considering releasing a statement to gauge fan sentiment about the 22-year-old’s comeback, the leaked information seemingly provoked an incredible outpouring of anger across various social media platforms.

 

As a result, the forward ultimately ended up being loaned to La Liga outfit Getafe, where he is currently active in his career.

 

Despite being out of the immediate spotlight, he continues to hold a place in the thoughts of Manchester United.

As reported by Mundo Deportivo, Paul Mitchell, strongly associated with joining the Red Devils to take over sporting operations when Sir Jim Ratcliffe assumes control, was present at Getafe’s game against Cadiz.

It seems highly unlikely for his presence to be coincidental; instead, it suggests his purpose was to assess how the former England international is performing in the sunny settings of the Spanish top-flight.

If his scouting assignment was truly for that purpose and he does assume the role of sporting director at the Theatre of Dreams, it would demonstrate remarkable leadership from Sir Jim.

This decision is unlikely to gain him widespread support, but it would provide a glimpse into the character of the new individual leading Manchester United to the loyal fanbase.
