Fabrizio Romano provides Mason Greenwood update as Man Utd plan outlined and one move ruled out

Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on Manchester United's plan to find a solution on Mason Greenwood ahead of the summer transfer window reopening.

Greenwood joined Getafe on loan last summer from Man United, with the player attracting interest following his performances in Spain.

He has scored eight goals in 26 appearances in all competitions this season.

Greenwood's showing against Atletico Madrid impressed Antoine Griezmann, who spoke out about the player.

A move to Barcelona had been mooted but, according to Romano, the Catalan giants are NOT working on a deal.

Man United, however, are open to selling Greenwood and want to find a solution in the summer.

Barca's focus is now on different targets, with a Liverpool star on their radar.

Despite being linked with a move away from Old Trafford, Greenwood could still have a career at Man United following Sir Jim Ratcliffe's 25 per cent purchase.

Ratcliffe said a decision on the 22-year-old will be made at the end of the season.

"We will make a decision, correct," he said. "All I can do is talk about the principle of how we will approach decisions like that.

"Is he the right type of footballer, are we happy with if is he a good person or not?

"He's a Manchester United footballer, so we are in charge of football. So the answer is Yeah, we have to make decisions. It's quite clear we have to make a decision.

"There is no decision that's been made. He's on-loan obviously, but he's not the only one. We've got one or two footballers that we have to deal with and we have to make a decision on so we will do that."

The 71-year-old added: "The process will be: understand the facts not the hype, and then try and come to fair decision on the basis of values, which is basically is he a good guy or not? Could he play sincerely for Manchester United well, would we be comfortable with it and would the fans be comfortable with it?"
