Mason Greenwood of Manchester United is not expected to be signed by Barcelona this summer after the team apparently lost interest in him. During his season-long loan stay at Getafe, Greenwood has drawn interest from teams in La Liga, but his dreams of a dream move to the Nou Camp may be coming to an end.

The 22-year-old, who resumed his career apart from United, is content with life in Spain. He has eight goals and five assists in 26 appearances.

His performance has reportedly drawn serious attention from Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid is also keeping an eye on him as well.

There are two main reasons why it seems doubtful that Greenwood will make a spectacular switch to the former this summer.

According to The Times, Barcelona is no longer interested in Greenwood because they think his cost would be prohibitive. Concerns have also been raised about potential response from some fan bases upon his arrival.

The “withdrawal of key witnesses and new material that came to light” was the reason given by the Crown Prosecution Service in February of last year to drop all charges.

Following a six-month internal inquiry, United determined it would be preferable for Greenwood to pursue his career away from the bright lights of Old Trafford. On the day of the deadline, he hurried out the exit door.

In the midst of rumours that former United CEO Richard Arnold had originally intended to reintegrate Greenwood into Erik ten Hag’s team before outcry prompted a U-turn, Getafe inserted a sell-on provision in the agreement and avoided paying a loan fee.

After graduating from the club’s Carrington academy, which he joined at age six, the Bradford-born sensation scored 35 goals in 129 games and was regarded as one of Europe’s most promising young attackers.

Greenwood has demonstrated his abilities at Getafe, and the article states that he is eager to live permanently in Spain with his partner and their child.
