Marseille Submit Formal Bid to Man Utd for Mason Greenwood

Mason Greenwood’s time at Manchester United appears to be over, with the Red Devils looking to entertain bids for the attacker after a decent loan spell at Spanish outfit Getafe next season. And with a whole host of clubs across Europe showing interest in securing his services, a deal could be done with Marseille – with Fabrizio Romano stating that the French outfit have submitted a loan-to-buy offer to United, in a bid to land the striker.

Marseille Submit Bid for Mason Greenwood

The striker could be on his way to the French Riviera

Romano stated on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday morning that Marseille have made their formal offer to United, in a bid to land Greenwood’s services at the Stade Velodrome.

The striker is no longer part of United’s plans after a review was undertook last summer, and that has seen the forward crop up onto the shortlist of various clubs across the continent – though Marseille have taken the first big step of any interested club. Talks are underway between the two clubs, with the Bradford-born attacker being the French club’s main target – and an agreement is getting closer.

United would prefer a straight sale, but INEOS have made a big decision by stating that they would be open to a loan-to-buy scenario if terms are favourable, alongside a sell-on clause to be included should the Englishman depart for pastures new – and that has seen Marseille come to the table.
