News summary

Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood is close to signing with Marseille for a fee of around £27 million, following an impressive loan spell at Getafe. However, the move has faced significant backlash, with Marseille's mayor Benoit Payan and numerous fans urging the club to withdraw from the deal due to Greenwood's past legal issues, including charges of attempted rape and assault, which were dropped in February 2023. The hashtag #GreenwoodNotWelcome has gained traction on social media as supporters express their disapproval, highlighting the transfer as inconsistent with the club's values. Despite this, Marseille head coach Roberto De Zerbi and some board members reportedly support the move, citing Greenwood's talent and potential benefits to the team. Greenwood has held discussions with United officials and is expected to finalize his departure from Old Trafford soon.
