MISSING SON: Mason Greenwood ended his career at Man Utd when he joined Marseille for a transfer price of more than 30 million pounds.

The 22-year-old touched down in France last night and has now penned a contract until 2029 in a deal that could be worth over £30million – just before United announced the £52m arrival of Leny Yoro from Lille.

Man Utd said farewell with a brief 57-word statement

The one-cap England forward will cost Ligue 1 giants Marseille an initial £27m plus £3.2m in add-ons.

United also have a 50 per cent sell-on clause included in the package.

The Red Devils have now announced his departure has been been completed with a brief statement on their website.

It read: “Mason Greenwood has left Manchester United and joined French club Olympique de Marseille on a permanent transfer.

“The 22 year-old English forward, who spent last season on loan at Getafe in Spain, made 129 appearances and scored 35 goals for United since making his debut in 2019.

“We wish Mason all the best in his future career.”

Greenwood joined Spanish side Getafe on loan last season and he shone at the LaLiga outfit, winning their Player of the Year prize.

His displays there had a number of clubs across Europe chasing his services.

Greenwood was told he no longer had a future at Man Utd in a meeting with the club’s leadership team this month, and trained individually during pre-season.

Marseille moved quick to strike their deal – despite it being against the wishes of many fans who started a campaign called #GreenwoodNotWelcome.

Marseille mayor Benoit Payan has also openly opposed the move and said that he would lobby the club’s president Pablo Longoria to call it off.
