Manchester United Must Share Mason Greenwood Transfer Windfall with Getafe
Mason Greenwood has completed a £33.3 million transfer from Marseille to Fenerbahce, triggering a 40% sell-on clause that nets Manchester United approximately £13.3 million. However, United must forward 20% of that amount (£2.7 million) to Getafe as part of an agreement from Greenwood's 2023/24 loan spell. The 24-year-old forward, who came through United's academy, scored 48 goals and provided 17 assists in 81 appearances for Marseille over two seasons. The net profit of roughly £10.5 million will count as pure profit under Premier League financial rules, providing a boost to manager Michael Carrick's transfer budget. Greenwood's career was interrupted by legal proceedings in 2022 (later dropped) for attempted rape, assault, and controlling behavior, which he denied. Former Marseille manager Roberto De Zerbi praised Greenwood's potential, suggesting he could win the Ballon d'Or.
