Mason Greenwood’s chances of reviving his career in Saudi Arabia seem very slim due to a feud with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mason Greenwood was arrested in January 2022 on suspicion of several offenses, including attempted rape, and after an internal investigation by Manchester United, it was decided that the striker would continue his career elsewhere.
While his future looks bleak, a move to Saudi Arabia has been discussed in reports, but this path might be more difficult to explore than others. According to The Sun, Greenwood believes that a move to the Middle East might not be possible due to comments he made about Ronaldo last winter.
The 21-year-old player reportedly openly stated that the Portuguese player’s career was “dead” just a few months after Ronaldo’s arrival at Al-Nassr. Furious, the former player of Real Madrid and Juventus allegedly “urged the Saudi League bosses not to consider making a move for his former teammate,” according to the British tabloid.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for a player who had a promising career when he first entered Manchester United’s first team. However, if these reports are accurate, a move to Saudi Arabia might not be feasible.
