According to Football Insider, Manchester United have discussed the idea of bringing Mason Greenwood back to the club.
Greenwood was sold to Marseille in the summer of 2024 and since his move to France, the attacker has regained his goal scoring form and has become of the best players in Ligue 1.
He has scored over 40 goals in his first two seasons at Marseille and the fact that United inserted a buy-back clause when they sold him shows that they felt that they could need him back at the club in the future.
Greenwood was offloaded by Man United under controversial circumstances, for his activities off the pitch.

However, the attacker has made a name for himself in France by showing his attacking skills and his goal scoring quality.
The former Man United man was involved in the Champions League this week as his Marseille side were beaten 3-0 by Premier League giants Liverpool.
His personal form has remained consistent in France. Not to forget that he was loaned out by Man United to Getafe where he also proved himself in a different league.
