- Getafe Reveals Ambitious Plans for Securing Mason Greenwood on a Permanent Deal
Mason Greenwood is on loan in Spain after a mutual decision with Manchester United to part ways. - The 22-year-old boasts four goals across 13 La Liga appearances.
- Greenwood’s future remains undecided with no final decision made.
Getafe President Angel Corres indicates the club’s interest in acquiring Mason Greenwood from Manchester United on a permanent basis. Greenwood’s move to Spain on transfer deadline day, initially on a season-long loan, followed a U-turn by United amid dropped allegations. Despite the turbulent circumstances, Greenwood has made a significant impact, contributing seven goals in 13 appearances.
The 22-year-old’s United contract expires in 2025, with the option to extend by a year, but the club was exploring a free transfer away before his temporary switch to Getafe.
Getafe President Corres has disclosed that the club believes in Greenwood and is actively exploring avenues to secure his permanent stay at the club.
“We have not talked about price. We have talked about looking at the situation and seeing what they propose because there has also been a change of shareholding there at Manchester [United],” he told reporters, per The Athletic.

“But we are still happy with the meetings and with the videoconferences we have with them. It is still too early to consider either continuing for one more season or that they will propose a price and we will commit the whole [of the contract] because we have a percentage and to buy the rest.
“I believe a lot [in Greenwood]. From here, we continue to work periodically, we continue to meet with Manchester [United] to see if they are happy. The truth is that they are happy with the treatment, not only from the fans of Getafe, but also from the whole Spain. Now we have to keep on defending him.
“He didn’t play for 16 months and I think that in January, February he will be able to get the rhythm. He will give us satisfaction.”
What2bet notes that Greenwood is relishing life in Spain, content with the current situation. His noteworthy performances have not only garnered attention within Getafe but have also sparked interest from other prominent clubs. Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid have observed Greenwood in action, and both Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are closely monitoring the evolving situation.
While a return to United is not entirely ruled out, the final decision on whether Greenwood stays or leaves hinges on the formalization of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s investment and the appointment of the club’s new footballing department.
