Manchester United have announced Mason Greenwood will not play for the club again.
A club statement saw Manchester United acknowledge that it is simply not possible for Mason Greenwood to continue his career at the club.
This came amid a statement from Greenwood himself, maintaining his innocence, and a long letter from chief executive Richard Arnold on the investigation process.
