Mason Greenwood Moves to Marseille Amid Controversy

Mason Greenwood's recent transfer from Manchester United to Marseille includes a unique sell-on clause that allows Getafe, where he was previously on loan, to benefit financially from his future moves. Getafe negotiated a 20% share of any fee United receives for selling Greenwood, which extends to all of United's potential future earnings from the player. Following his loan at Getafe, where he scored 10 goals and assisted six times, Greenwood was sold for up to £26.7 million, netting Getafe approximately £5.34 million. Additionally, United included their own sell-on clause in the sale to Marseille, meaning Getafe will also benefit from any future transfers involving Greenwood. The player was previously suspended due to serious allegations, which were later dropped, leading to a controversial return to football. The situation has sparked public backlash, especially from Marseille's mayor, who expressed strong disapproval of the transfer.
