Mason Greenwood could technically return for Manchester United as of next week, according to information provided by The Athletic.

Greenwood is under investigation by Greater Manchester Police over allegations of rape, assault, sexual assault and threats to kill. He has not been charged with any of the aforementioned and is currently out on bail.
