Citing the British newspaper Telegraph', Britain's `The Sun' reported on the 11th (Korea Standard Time), 'Two unnamed Premier League clubs are seeking access to Greenwood's surprise recruitment' Greenwood's talent has not been hidden this season either.
He escaped Manchester United's bondage in July last year. Transferred completely to Marseille in France. The transfer fee was 26.6 million pounds (about 49.5 billion won). There was no need for time to adapt to France.
Greenwood has 19 goals and four assists in 133 league games. He scored the winning goal with a fantastic left-footed mid-range shot in the 40th minute of the second half in the 33rd round of League 1 in the 2024-2025 season against Le Havre, leading Marseille to a 3-1 complete victory. Greenwood is ranked second in the scoring list after Usman Dembele (Paris Saint-Germain, PSG, 21 goals).
A former Manchester United youth, he made his professional debut in the 2018-2019 season and scored 35 goals in 129 games until January 2022. He was also selected for the England national team and played in one A match. There was no disagreement that it was the best prospect.
However, the race stopped due to the privacy controversy. Greenwood was arrested in January 2022 on charges of rape and assault. Manchester United immediately ruled it out of power. There was a twist.
He was cleared of attempted rape in February 2023. Criminal charges were dropped as key witnesses withdrew their testimony. It is legally free. However, the aftermath remained, and he failed to return to Manchester United in the end.

Getafe's lease term has ended. However, with Getafe's finances, Greenwood could not be fully recruited. Marseille held his hand, and his natural skill remained.
Marseille and Greenwood have a five-year contract. According to the soccer statistics media 'Opta', he is ranked as the fifth most effective player in Europe. It's just after Chelsea's Cole Palmer.
However, it was again under fire in March over attitude issues. He's crossing the bridge with coach Roberto DeGerby who can't come back. De Zerby has exploded over his lack of activity.

If Greenwood leaves Marseille, not only La Liga but also Serie A could be the next destination. Saudi Arabia is also watching him. However, he is considering returning to England as a top priority.
