Man United dealt Mason Greenwood injury concern: report

Man United just can’t catch an injury break at the moment, with Mason Greenwood now suffering from an issue.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can have no excuses after Manchester United’s awful exit from the FA Cup at the weekend. Sadly, the Old Trafford outfit and their fans now have two-weeks to simmer on that humbling loss.

Now, United stars will jet all over the world to represent their country. One player who’ll no longer be meeting up for international duty is Mason Greenwood.

That’s according to the Manchester Evening News, who claim that United have suffered an injury concern in regards to Greenwood. Although United are ‘hopeful’ that the problem suffered by the 19-year-old isn’t serious, the player will be assessed by Reds’ medical staff ahead of the Brighton game on April 4th.

No information is provided in regards to what the problem area is, so us trying to put any sort of timeframe on it would be nothing more than guesswork.


It’s a shame because Greenwood, who has struggled in front of goal this season, found the back of the net against Leicester with a trademark finish. I just hope this injury issue doesn’t dent the confidence that he was slowly but surely getting back.

2020/21 has been a real wake-up call for Greenwood. The media got on his back, which obviously affected performances while opposing teams knew all about his strengths (and weaknesses). It’s easy to forget he’s still young and learning his trade, while the pressure of playing for United is so, so intense.

I don’t doubt that in 2021/22 he’ll have a bounce-back year. He’s too talented and driven to let this season get him down. I just hope that he, and his United teammates, enter into next term with the Europa League trophy under their belt as that will give everyone a lift.

Is Mason Greenwood good enough for Man United in the long-term? Let us know your thoughts in the comment box below.
