Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood is set to become a father.

Greenwood found out he will become a father for the first time just weeks after charges of attempted rape and assault against him were dropped.

The Sun says his family are said to be aware and 'looking forward' to welcoming the couple's child in the summer.

Greenwood last played played a football match against West Ham on January 22, 2022, but he has continued to earn £75,000 a week since then. He is contracted until 2025.

While United are conducting their own investigation, the squad are claimed to be split over whether or not the former academy starlet should be allowed to return.

The report states that some of the members of the squad harbour concerns about his return, while some possess no objections to Greenwood being welcomed back.
