Pablo Longoria took advantage of Mason Greenwood’s presentation to respond to the controversy surrounding the arrival of the English attacking midfielder. The OM president hopes to close the subject by ensuring that his club is standing firm.
Should you recruit a player who has been accused of domestic violence in the past? Olympique de Marseille answered the question by paying around 30 million euros to secure the services of Mason Greenwood. This has caused some controversy among Marseille fans.
“I understand that his arrival raises questions and concerns. I respect everyone’s opinions but I do not want to get into controversy, commented President Pablo Longoria this Friday during Greenwood’s presentation to the press. It’s the past, a complex and old situation. Mason spoke about it. I spoke with all the parties around the file, I have a personal involvement in this file. The club has a very professional and meticulous approach. I am Spanish and I know that it has been exemplary in Getafe and in the city of Madrid. It is time to talk about the future, we are talking about the future.
No questions on the subject for Greenwood
Greenwood’s defenders point to the fact that the complaint filed by his partner in 2022 was withdrawn the following year. The player and the young woman are still a couple, and have just welcomed their first child. In addition, Manchester United had launched an internal investigation which found nothing reprehensible in the player’s behavior even if the Red Devils, faced with public distrust, decided to loan him to Getafe last season and sell him this summer.
On this controversy, Greenwood spoke on Thursday and OM’s communication cut short a question on the subject this Friday during the press briefing. The player simply promised that he would honor a charitable commitment. “The staff and players told me about the foundation, associations and hospital visits and like the other players I will participate in these initiatives.” , Greenwood said.
