Manchester United suspend Greenwood for alleged assault on a woman

the attacker of Manchester United, Mason Greenwood, will not return to training or playing “until further notice”, the Premier League club said in a statement released on Sunday after a woman accused the 20-year-old of assault.

Hours before the announcement, videos, photos and an audio recording were posted on the woman’s Instagram account before being deleted.

These images show the young woman with a bloodied face and bruises all over her body and appear accompanied by the message: “For all those who want to know what Mason Greenwood really does to me”.

“We are aware of the images and accusations circulating on social media,” the club wrote in a first statement. “We will not comment until the facts are clear. Manchester United do not tolerate violence of any kind.”

After that first warning, United issued a second statement: “Mason Greenwood will not return to training or playing until further notice.”

A spokesman for Manchester Police, quoted by the British Press Association, said in turn that it had “opened an investigation to clarify the circumstances of the incident”.
