Mason Greenwood granted bail after private hearing

The 21-year-old appeared at a private hearing at Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester.

The currently suspended Manchester United striker was first arrested in January after pictures and videos were leaked online.

He has since been on bail but was arrested in the Trafford area on Saturday for an alleged breach of conditions.

All three counts Greenwood is facing relate to the same woman.

Earlier this week, Manchester United shared a statement after Greenwood was informed of the three charges.

A statement from the club said: “Manchester United notes that prosecutors have filed criminal charges against Mason Greenwood. He remains suspended from the club pending the conclusion of the court case.’

Within hours of the allegations surfacing online earlier in the year, the striker, who once played for England, was suspended from playing or training with the Old Trafford club.

Nike suspended and later terminated its sponsorship deal with Greenwood, while Electronic Arts confirmed its removal from active rosters for its Fifa 22 game.

Greenwood will next appear in court on November 21.
