Mason Greenwood’s situation at Manchester United this week gets interesting updates from the French media.
Foot Mercato comes forward to report Marseille now have an advantage in the battle for his signing, and that’s because of the player’s personal wish.
Lazio had also been in the race to land Greenwood, and according to the report, he’s not very keen on leaving Manchester United for the Serie A side.
The winger is actually ‘favouring’ a move to Marseille, who are already in talks with the Red Devils for an agreement.
It’s said there’s even some ‘optimism’ from the French side, as they believe there are good chances the operation will be finalised.
Manchester United are thought to be demanding €40m for the transfer, though, and they’ll need to be ‘more reasonable’ when negotiating.
The talks are in ‘full swing’ while all parties try to find an agreement. Since Greenwood’s contract with the Red Devils expires in a year, this is a crucial transfer window for the English club to make the most out of his sale.
