Atletico Madrid has intensified their pursuit of the Manchester United loanee Greenwood

Looking dashing, Mason Greenwood! Following his sensational return for Getafe against Rojiblancos, Atletico Madrid has intensified their pursuit of the Manchester United loanee.’

Mason Greenwood, on loan from Manchester United, impressed for Getafe in their 3-3 draw with Diego Simeone’s team, and Atletico Madrid are considering a transfer for him.

Getafe rallied from a 3-0 deficit to earn a 3-3 draw against Atletico Madrid in La Liga, thanks in large part to the 22-year-old’s goal and assist. Atletico Madrid star Antoine Griezmann was among several who lauded the winger, saying that the Red Devils loanee “hurt them a lot” all game long.

Mundo Deportivo states that Diego Simeone’s team is allegedly trying to acquire the player in the summer of 2024 following his stellar performance at the Wanda Metropolitano. Getafe, Greenwood’s present club, wants to make the player’s transfer from United permanent next year, so they will compete with Real Madrid and Barcelona, two of the biggest names in the sport.

Since joining Geta Azulones on loan in the summer, the England international has played in 15 matches, scoring five goals and assisting on four more.

Despite having a contract with the club until 2027, United is not likely to re-sign him. If the Premier League heavyweights sell the player, they will lose a significant amount of money.

The player’s loan agreement has a sell-on option that permits Getafe to pay just 80% of the agreed-upon fee with his parent club, according to The Athletic. Getafe will retain 20% of the transfer fee regardless of where Greenwood is sold.
