MASON GREENWOOD is ready to quit Manchester United after the club agreed to sell him for £27 million to Marseille.

According to The Athletic, the French side will pay £23 million upfront, with an extra £4 million arriving in add-ons.

Marseille has signed Mason Greenwood from Manchester United for £27 million, with United retaining a significant portion of any future cost.

However, the move still requires Greenwood’s approval.

The 22-year-old striker may not have much longer to stay at Old Trafford after graduating from the academy, as Marseille is attempting to sign him.

On Monday, Greenwood, who was awarded player of the season when on loan at Getafe in La Liga the previous season, made his way back to United’s Carrington headquarters.

However, he did not practice with the rest of the squad that had returned for pre-season training; instead, he just spoke with United officials.

Despite the fact that accusations of attempted rape and violence were dismissed against him last year, the one-capped England player has been told he has no future at the club.

His performances in Spain last season sparked interest from a number of overseas teams.

Marseille, on the other hand, has rejected offers from Lazio, Atletico Madrid, and Valencia in order to sign a contract with United.

The French giants made an offer of £27 million with a large sell-on fee, which the Red Devils have now accepted.

David Ornstein tweeted: “Marseille has reached an agreement with Manchester United to sign Mason Greenwood.

The proposed deal with the 22-year-old forward is still pending approval and not yet in place.

“Price €31.6m (€27.6m fixed, €4m add-ons) + large share of future sale.”

However, the move is expected to be contentious, with Marseille fans launching a campaign to oppose Greenwood’s departure.

And supporters have received support from the city’s mayor, who has pushed Marseille to reconsider the action.

Benoit Payan stated: “Greenwood’s attitude is disgusting and inexcusable.

“OM and Marseille have quite different values. This is a shame.

“I’ll ask Pablo Longoria not to recruit Greenwood.” I don’t want my club to be associated with shame.”

Meanwhile, a fan statement added: “At a time when negotiations for the arrival of Mason Greenwood are announced and becoming increasingly heated, it appears necessary to explain, once more and before the damage is irreversible, why this transfer seems inconceivable in light of the club’s values.

“And why it would mean for many of us a red line that would irreparably damage the passion that we have for this club.”

However, Greenwood was backed by new Marseille manager Roberto De Zerbi.

He remarked, “Greenwood has not yet been recruited, so there isn’t much to tell. He is a champion, an international level player.

“I don’t know what happened; I’m not interested in private life. When a player signs with the club, I consider him my child.

“Even if I can pull his ear in private, I will defend him in public.” “My players are like my sons.”
