Mason Will John Greenwood is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Premier League club Manchester United. He is the second-youngest player to represent the club in European competition and the youngest ever in the Champions League era.
Mason Greenwood can become a superstar in turbulent times at Manchester United
The forward joined the club at age six, after being identified at an early age playing for his local side in Bradford. There were few doubts that Greenwood would eventually make the step up to the first team but nobody could have predicted his debut would come so soon, nevermind in such dramatic circumstances. His first-team bow was a nine-minute cameo on an incredible night in Paris last March, during the height of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s honeymoon period back at Old Trafford. Much has changed since then, both for the club and Greenwood himself. Not that you’d know it from observing the 17-year-old. Ask those that have worked with Greenwood in close quarters and the reports are eerily similar; that this precocious teenager is grounded, polite, timid and as yet, unaffected by the looming stardom. It’s why, even at the tender age of 17, that Greenwood’s story is already being championed by coaches in United’s youth set-up, who hold the striker up as an example of the ‘runway’ the academy provides for youngsters into the first team. While naturally gifted, it’s Greenwood’s determination to improve that’s made him such a favorite within the academy and coaches have described him as a ‘sponge’ for his willingness to learn and take on instructions.
