According to the Guardian, United staff are split over whether Greenwood should be allowed to resume his career at the club.

It is believed a substantial proportion of the workforce would be unhappy if Greenwood played for the club again, while others feel a duty of care towards a player who joined the club as a 7-year-old and has not been found guilty of any crime.

There is another side of this – for those that feel the latter are right to feel a duty of care towards Greenwood. Having charges dropped doesn’t make him innocent and that is why I think so many people feel uncomfortable or utterly appalled at the idea of him playing for United again.

United have launched an internal process, overseen by Richard Arnold, to determine what steps they should take next.

Greenwood’s current deal at United runs until 2025.

When asked about Greenwood on Friday, Erik ten Hag said: “I can’t give a comment about the process. I can’t say anything about it. I refer to the statement of the club and at this moment I can’t add anything.”

United have not set a deadline for their decision on Greenwood’s future.
