As per The Athletic, the 22-year-old is anticipated to depart Manchester United permanently this summer, following a season-long loan spell at Getafe. Although the Madrid club seeks to secure him on loan again next season, United reportedly leans towards a permanent arrangement. Napoli is now monitoring the forward closely, particularly with the anticipated departure of their star striker Victor Osimhen in the upcoming months.

Greenwood, who faced charges of attempted rape, assault, and coercive control, which were dropped in February 2023, has also been linked with Juventus, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid. The former England international’s contract expires in the summer of 2025, yet United holds an option to extend it for an additional 12 months. Although Sir Jim Ratcliffe hasn’t dismissed the possibility of Greenwood returning, indications suggest he might seek new opportunities elsewhere soon.

Since his loan move to Getafe in September 2023, Greenwood has made 34 appearances for the Spanish side, tallying 10 goals and six assists across all competitions. Interestingly, Manchester United hasn’t ruled out the chance of their academy graduate going out on loan again.

Before Greenwood embarks on his summer break, the Getafe loanee aims to participate in their upcoming matches against Alaves away on Saturday night and then at home against Mallorca on May 25. Currently positioned 10th in the table, they could climb to ninth if Valencia loses their last two matches and Getafe wins both of theirs.
