Mason Greenwood is a doubt for England's next fixtures due to agreement between Gareth Southgate and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to nurture Man United star's international career

* Mason Greenwood was left out of England's World Cup qualifying triple header
* Gareth Southgate met Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for talks about him last month
* The 19-year-old has scored in each of Man United's first three league games
* But the two managers are keen to nurture his international career carefully

Mason Greenwood could be left out of England's next round of internationals as part of an agreement between Gareth Southgate and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Sportsmail understands Southgate met Solskjaer for talks at Manchester United's training ground last month, three days before omitting Greenwood from his squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Hungary, Andorra and Poland.

There are no guarantees that Greenwood will be recalled to face Andorra and Hungary next month either, despite a flying start to the season that has seen him score in each of United's first three Premier League games.

Southgate and Solskjaer will continue to monitor the 19-year-old's progress before making a decision, but are keen to nurture his international career carefully.

The England boss explained his reasoning last month after surprisingly leaving out Greenwood and calling up Patrick Bamford instead.

'He (Greenwood) is a player we really like and he's got every possibility to be a top England player. We're all conscious we make that progression at the right time,' said Southgate. 'We decided it's best he stays with his club. We're all aligned with that — Mason, the club and his family.'

Greenwood is highly regarded within the England set-up, but his only cap came against Iceland a year ago before he and Phil Foden were sent home for smuggling two women into the team hotel.

He pulled out of Euro 2020 this summer due to an 'underlying injury', and it is understood that he reported for pre-season at United in July with mixed feelings over his international situation.

United sources say Greenwood, who is still eligible for Jamaica, is totally committed to England but stress the need for him to be protected through the early stages of his career.

GREENWOOD MAKES 40-MAN GOLDEN BOY SHORTLIST

Manchester United's 19-year-old forward Mason Greenwood has made it to the next stage of voting for the prestigious Golden Boy award.

Greenwood came 12th in the 2020 rankings, behind the likes of Manchester City's Phil Foden, new United signing Jadon Sancho and eventual winner, Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland.

And our no.11 is once again in the running to be named Europe's best player under the age of 21, as he is one of 40 contenders remaining from the original list of 100, which was announced in June.

As usual, there is intense competition for the award, handed out by Italian newspaper Tuttosport, although Mason is one of the most experienced players in contention, having already racked up a century of Reds appearances.

Greenwood's fellow England internationals Jude Bellingham and Bukayo Saka are among the favourites, with new Real Madrid signing Eduardo Camavinga also on the shortlist.

Highly rated Bundesliga stars Jamal Musiala (Bayern Munich) and Florian Wirtz (Bayer Leverkusen) could also be in with a shout, as could Barcelona's Pedri after his stellar showings for Spain at Euro 2020.

Mason will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of the stars who have previously claimed the award, including team-mate Anthony Martial, who won in 2015.

Wayne Rooney (2004) and Anderson (2008) have also been named the brightest talent playing on the continent, while with United, and Paul Pogba came top as a Juventus player in 2013.

The list will then be shortened to a final 20, before journalists from various European newspaper, including L'Equipe, Bild, The Times and Marca, decide on their eventual winner.

Ralf Rangnick calls on 'very gifted' Mason Greenwood to EARN more game time as he admits he would love to play the 20-year-old more often at Manchester United

* Mason Greenwood came off the bench in the second half on Sunday afternoon
* Interim Manchester United boss Ralf Rangnick praised the forward's ability
* However, the German warned his player that he must earn more playing time

Ralf Rangnick has called upon Mason Greenwood to earn more game time at Manchester United.

The interim head coach won his first game in charge on Sunday when United beat Crystal Palace 1-0 at Old Trafford.

Greenwood was introduced as a second-half substitute, replacing Jadon Sancho just after the hour-mark with the score at 0-0.

The 20-year-old kept his composure inside the Palace box to tee up Fred for the winning goal - his first assist of the season in the league.

It adds to the four goals he mustered at the beginning of the season, but, while impressed by the maturity of the display, Rangnick insists he has to earn his appearances by showing dedication on the training pitch.

‘Mason [Greenwood] did so well at the start of the season,’ said Rangnick.

‘I think he scored three or four goals in the first three games, he’s a very gifted homegrown player and I would love to give him more game-time in the future.

‘But, of course, he has to deserve his game-time in training and, therefore, it was good to have him on the bench and bring him on the pitch.’

Greenwood scored in each of United's first three matches of the campaign, but has find playing time hard to come by in recent weeks.

He had not made a league appearance since being taken off in the second half of the derby defeay by rivals Manchester City - missing the subsequent Watford clash with Covid, before remaining on the bench for the two matches Michael Carrick took charge of.

There have been concerns about Mason Greenwood's ego at Manchester United for some time… he has an uneasy relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo on the pitch and his England career has not recovered from Iceland shame

* Mason Greenwood has been arrested on suspicion of rape and assault
* The Englishman has been involved in a host of controversies in his young career
* He was sent home after making his England debut for inviting girls to his hotel
* The forward has struggled to hit it off with ultra-disciplined Cristiano Ronaldo
* There have been rumblings about the 20-year-old's inflated ego at Old Trafford

For a young man still in the early stages of what should be a hugely promising career, Mason Greenwood has attracted more than his fair share of negative publicity.

Even taking into account the fact that he plays for one of the world’s biggest football clubs and is subjected to intense scrutiny on and off the pitch, the 20-year-old prodigy from Yorkshire has found himself in the news for the wrong reasons rather more often than he would like.

From being sent home in disgrace from Iceland after making his England debut to concerns over his attitude at Manchester United, Greenwood’s path has not been a smooth one since he made his senior debut as a late substitute in the memorable Champions League comeback against Paris Saint-Germain nearly three years ago.

It was the first of 129 appearances for United so far which have brought 35 goals and huge expectation.


Manchester United's Mason Greenwood has been arrested on suspicion of rape and assault. The young forward has been a controversial figure since his 2019 debut for United. Greenwood is one of the game's most valuable players but has put his future at grave risk

Greenwood, we keep being told, is the best natural finisher at the club and a forward of great potential.

In a list of the most valuable players in Europe’s top five leagues, published earlier this month by CIES Football Observatory, he is ranked fourth at £133.9million. Other industry estimates are closer to £90m.

Either way, Greenwood’s camp — headed by his father Andrew, an engineer by trade — are well aware of his worth. It is understood that in talks with Nike recently, the prospect of switching to a rival sponsor was raised unless Greenwood is given parity with other top players. There have been concerns about his ego at United for some time, even before he signed a new £75,000-a-week contract last year.

While insiders describe a rather quiet young man who keeps himself to himself around the training ground, Greenwood does not seem to be lacking in confidence.

His uneasy relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo on the pitch has been noted since the five-time Ballon d’Or winner returned to Old Trafford in the summer.

Indeed, when the Portuguese spoke in an interview earlier this month about young players being reluctant to take advice, some people jumped to the conclusion he was referring to Greenwood.

Previously, United had reason to speak to the youngster about his attitude around the training ground and in particular over his time-keeping, amid speculation it was the reason for his absence from another Champions League tie against PSG in October 2020.

During lockdown, there were reports he was hosting parties at a rented property and that neighbours had complained about the noise.

Then there is the curious situation surrounding Greenwood’s international career.

It could not have got off to a worse start when he and Manchester City’s Phil Foden were sent home from Iceland by Gareth Southgate for inviting two girls into England’s team hotel after making their senior debuts in Reykjavik.

The breach of Covid quarantine rules earned them both a police fine of £1,360, but could have had far more serious consequences for England’s next game against Denmark.

Greenwood issued an apology for the ‘huge mistake’, adding that playing for England was ‘one of the proudest moments in my life’.

While Foden has gone on to play another 12 times for England, Greenwood has not represented his country since and remains eligible for Jamaica.

He withdrew from England’s squad for Euro 2020 to recover from an underlying injury, according to his club, but has remained absent following talks with Southgate, his family and former United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in August.

It is understood Greenwood’s message to the England manager was he would rather not be picked if he was not going to play — another worrying sign that his ego was becoming a problem, given that he was still a teenager at the time.

However, none of the issues in his short career can compare to the serious allegations made against Greenwood on Sunday.

United confirmed he will not train or play until further notice, only right while Greater Manchester Police carry out their investigation. The club find themselves in an awful situation.

Quite how this plays out remains to be seen. But the consequences for a career that has promised so much are potentially devastating.

Manchester United's Mason Greenwood spends THIRD night in cells after being re-arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and threats to kill against student, 18, he is already accused of raping and assaulting

* Mason Greenwood, 20, was arrested over additional assault charges on Tuesday
* He is already accused of rape and assault against an 18-year-old student
* Police interviewers were granted more time to question the Man United striker
* The striker has been removed from FIFA 22 video game and suspended by Nike

Mason Greenwood has been further arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and threats to kill, with the Manchester United star already accused of rape and assault.

Detectives have been granted additional time to question the England striker who spent a third night in jail after first being detained on Sunday.

The 20-year-old was arrested after distressing pictures and audio circulated on social media alleging he attacked an 18-year-old student.

After dozens of hours of interviews, police are now quizzing him over two more serious allegations.

Police said in a statement on yesterday evening: 'Detectives have been granted further additional time to speak to a man in his 20s who was arrested on suspicion of rape and assault of a woman.

'The suspect was detained in custody on Sunday afternoon after we became aware of online social media images and videos posted by a woman reporting incidents of physical violence.

'He continues to be questioned after magistrates authorised an extension until tomorrow [Wednesday].

'Following enquiries so far, he has since been further arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and threats to kill.

'Enquiries are ongoing and the victim continues to be offered specialist support.'

Following the update, United released a statement: 'Manchester United reiterates its strong condemnation of violence of any kind. As previously communicated, Mason Greenwood will not train with, or play for, the club until further notice.'

It comes after the striker was removed from FIFA 22 in an update on Tuesday.

After a database update for all platforms including Xbox, PlayStation and PC, the Manchester United striker no longer features in the popular computer game for offline modes.

But his FIFA 22 Ultimate Team item is still active and can be swapped on the game's FUT 22 transfer market, the Manchester Evening News reports.

Meanwhile, United's most high-profile players, including David de Gea, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Pogba have appeared to unfollow Greenwood on Instagram, despite following other squad members.

Marcus Rashford, Edinson Cavani, Fred and Jesse Lingard are also among those not following the rising star, while club captain Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes are in a group of 18 squad members who, so far, are continuing to do so.

The images which circulated online appeared to show Greenwood's alleged victim bloodied and bruised.

Another post included a voice recording of a conversation between a man and a woman, dated October last year, which purportedly chronicled the woman being attacked.

In the wake of the allegations, Nike - the world-famous sportswear giant - released a statement stating that they were 'deeply concerned'.

It was also revealed their connection with Greenwood has been put on hold.

A statement read: 'We have suspended our relationship with Mason Greenwood. We are deeply concerned by the disturbing allegations and will continue to closely monitor the situation.'

Mason Greenwood is banned by Man Utd and England: Striker, 20, will not play or train with either team while he faces 'rape, assault and threats to kill' probe after 'attack on 18-year-old student'

* Striker was released on bail by police yesterday 'pending further investigation'
* Investigation into allegations of rape, assault, sexual assault and threats to kill
* Southgate ruled out even considering him for squad until proceedings are over

Mason Greenwood has been banished from England and Manchester United as police continue to investigate claims he raped an 18-year-old student.

The striker, 20, was released on bail yesterday 'pending further investigation' after being arrested on suspicion of rape.

Greater Manchester Police then announced further investigations into allegations of assault, sexual assault and making threats to kill.

England manager Gareth Southgate has ruled out even considering him for selection until all legal proceedings are over, The Sun reported.

Man Utd have also reiterated that Mason Greenwood will not play for the club or train until further notice.

Greenwood has not played for England since being sent home in disgrace after his debut against Iceland in a Nations League game in September 2020.

He and Manchester City’s Phil Foden were told to leave for breaking Covid quarantine guidelines to meet two women in the team hotel.

This week United confirmed supporters will be able to exchange their shirts with Mason Greenwood's name emblazoned on the back for free.

The club removed all merchandise related to the forward from their website on Monday, with members of their furious fanbase returning their replica shirts to the megastore at Old Trafford.

Nike have suspended their sponsorship deal with Greenwood, while United's shirt sponsors TeamViewer said they are 'closely monitoring developments'.

Mason Greenwood was dropped by Nike without receiving a PENNY in compensation - but Man United must still pay his £75,000-a-week salary despite suspending him

* Sportswear giant Nike has stated Mason Greenwood is no longer their athlete
* His sponsorship deal has been terminated without receiving any compensation
* The Manchester United forward was arrested and has been released on bail
* But United must still pay his £75,000-a-week salary despite suspending him

Mason Greenwood was dropped from his Nike sponsorship deal without receiving a penny of compensation, it has emerged.

The US sportswear giant confirmed earlier this week that Greenwood 'is no longer a Nike athlete' after initially suspending their relationship with the Manchester United star following his arrest on suspicion of raping, sexually assaulting and threatening to kill an 18-year-old student.

Sportsmail understands that a clause in his endorsement deal meant Nike were able to sever all ties without paying the 20-year-old any compensation whatsoever due to reputational damage and loss of commercial value.

Greenwood was due to sign an improved contract with Nike next year, and the decision to drop him will potentially cost the player millions.

It's believed that the only money owing to Greenwood would be any outstanding bonus payments - and he may even have to give back some of this year's earnings to Nike if they were paid up front.

United, on the other hand, are contractually bound to continue paying Greenwood's £75,000-a-week salary despite suspending him after he was arrested earlier this month and then released on bail. They have said that he will not play for the club or train at Carrington until further notice.

'Greenwood's player contract says he can only be suspended for 14 days on full pay,' said Joseph Lappin, head of employment at UK law firm Stewarts.

'On the face of it therefore, Greenwood appears free to return to training after 14 days even if the police investigation is still ongoing.

'However, I don't expect that to happen. Letting Greenwood return now would be a PR nightmare for the club.

'Manchester United may say that for as long as any police investigation and criminal prosecution remains live they have the power under the player contract to continue the suspension or re-suspend.'

Greenwood was due to sign an improved contract with Nike next year and the decision to drop him could potentially cost the player millions. His club Manchester United, on the other hand, are contractually bound to continue paying

United must now wait to see if Greenwood is charged before deciding on their next move.

Lappin added: 'In these early days, whilst the criminal investigation is ongoing, the risk of dismissing Greenwood is too great.

'Greenwood would stand to be compensated by the club for the sums owing to him under the remaining term of his contract if his dismissal was found to be unlawful.

'If Manchester United considers that the employment relationship has reached the end of the road, more likely is that club proposes terminating the contract and paying Greenwood a settlement sum.

'If this happened, Greenwood could look to sign for a club abroad, possibly on a pre-contract basis pending the outcome of the criminal investigation in England.

'If there is a trial and Greenwood is found not guilty, he and the club may explore early termination of his player contract.

'If there is a trial and Greenwood is found guilty and sent to prison, Manchester United could rip up the player contract and stop paying Greenwood.'
