There has been mutual consent to part ways between Mason Greenwood and Manchester United.
The Red Devils had suspended Greenwood, 21, since January 2022 due to allegations involving a young woman after pictures and videos were uploaded online.
The forward was facing charges including rape and sexual assault up until six months ago when the Crown Prosecution Service announced his case had been discontinued.
Since then, United have been weighing up their next course of action and have now announced the academy graduate will be moving on from his boyhood club.
A club statement read: “Manchester United has concluded its internal investigation into the allegations made against Mason Greenwood.
“Our process commenced in February 2023, following all charges against Mason being dropped.
“Throughout, we have taken into account the wishes, rights and perspective of the alleged victim along with the club’s standards and values, and sought to collate as much information and context as possible.
“This has required us to proceed with sensitivity and care to obtain evidence not in the public domain, including from those with direct knowledge of the case.
“Based on the evidence available to us, we have concluded that the material posted online did not provide a full picture and that Mason did not commit the offences in respect of which he was originally charged.
“That said, as Mason publicly acknowledges today, he has made mistakes which he is taking responsibility for.
“All those involved, including Mason, recognise the difficulties with him recommencing his career at Manchester United.
“It has therefore been mutually agreed that it would be most appropriate for him to do so away from Old Trafford, and we will now work with Mason to achieve that outcome.”
