While his performance in his Ligue 1 debut was praised, Mason Greenwood continues to spark debate regarding his personal past.
Recruited by Olympique de Marseille after careful consideration, Mason Greenwood has already justified the confidence placed in him by president Pablo Longoria. Author of a double and involved in all of OM’s goal-scoring actions during the large success gleaned this weekend against Brest (1-5, 1st day of Ligue 1), the Englishman has for the moment convinced observers. At least in sporting terms. Because as for the controversy concerning his personal past, the situation remains different.
Suspected of rape and domestic violence against his partner in January 2022, the former Manchester United player had finally escaped a trial, Harriet Robson choosing to withdraw her complaint and drop the charges against the man with whom she finally got back together and had a child. If everything seems settled on that side for Mason Greenwood, the subject remains in everyone’s minds and for some, it will not come out.
“The controversy will not stop”
This is essentially the opinion expressed by Dominique Sévérac on Sunday evening. On the set of the channel The Teamthe journalist mentioned the case of the English offensive. The controversy will not stop. (…) All season long, I will be uncomfortable. “For him, it is therefore not a question of thinking that, if Greenwood were to have a very high-level sporting season, this would allow us to no longer talk about the rest, or even to have an opinion on the subject.
And Dominique Sévérac added a clarification: “ Afterwards, there may be phenomena that you know about. She may have withdrawn her complaint, be under the influence of her husband. So all this is very complicated. For me, there will be a permanent unease all season with this player. “As for Mason Greenwood, who knows full well that the subject will haunt him for a long time to come, he seems to have managed to stay focused on his football. Marseille, whose president Longoria had assured during his presentation, that the striker corresponded ” to the values of OM ” hopes he will continue like this all season.
