Could Mason Greenwood play for Man United this season? Answered

The rape and assault charges levelled against Mason Greenwood have been dropped after a number of witnesses withdrew from taking the stand, the Crown Prosecution Service has confirmed.

Does that mean Greenwood could return to action for Manchester United this season?

As per the Daily Mirror, that seems unlikely as the club are conducting their due investigation before letting him train again.

The situation has reportedly left the striker, 21, in a 'limbo' as the internal probe could extend over the next several months.

The Red Devils will corroborate his version of events and will also get specialists to examine his mental and physical condition.

Chances of all this resolving before May 28 - the end of this season - are very slim
