Getafe sporting director, Ruben Reyes has come out to explain why the club decided to sign Mason Greenwood on loan from Manchester United. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, since those who charged him have decided to drop the case, there is no need for anyone else to be judge on how his career should pan out.
Ruben added that the club believes Greenwood is a good signing that will complete the current squad.
His words, “He has been sentenced by whoever had to do it, who is a judge. That is the absolute highest authority, isn’t it?”
“We, as I always say, have only signed players with the possibility of being signed. Both Mason, [Diego] Rico, and Oscar [Rodriguez] we consider that they were good signings for Getafe to complete our squad. A squad with players you know, who have our DNA and who are the house brand for this club to be maintained every year. It is very important. Being able to add these pieces for these colleagues who have given performance in recent years is a joy for us.”
WOW.
Mason Will John Greenwood (born 1 October 2001) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for La Liga club Getafe, on loan from Premier League club Manchester United.
A graduate of United’s youth system, Greenwood scored in a UEFA Europa League match against Astana in September 2019, to become the club’s youngest ever goalscorer in European competition at the age of 17 years, 353 days. His senior international debut for England came in September 2020, in a UEFA Nations League game against Iceland.
Greenwood joined Manchester United at the age of six, playing at the club’s development school in Halifax. After progressing through the academy ranks, he joined up with the Under-18 squad for the 2017–18 season, despite being eligible for the Under-16s, and finished as top scorer of the U18 Premier League North with 17 goals in 21 games.
In May 2018, Greenwood was named Player of the Tournament as the youth side won the ICGT Trophy, an international youth football tournament, in the Netherlands.
