Tottenham and West Ham Join Barcelona in Pursuit of Marseille’s Mason Greenwood

Any major sale would deliver a significant payment to Manchester United through a 50% sell-on clause.

Overview

  • Reports from TeamTalk, relayed by multiple outlets, say Tottenham and West Ham have joined the clubs tracking Greenwood, with Barcelona described as leading after scouting his four-goal display against Le Havre.
  • Greenwood has continued his resurgence at Marseille with eight goals in 12 matches this season, following a 21-goal Ligue 1 campaign last year.
  • Marseille are portrayed as reluctant sellers, with coach Roberto De Zerbi and owner Frank McCourt publicly urging the forward to remain part of the club’s project.
  • Coverage cites claims that any deal could reach around €100m, which would see Manchester United collect roughly €50m (£44m) under the reported sell-on provision.
  • Analysts note that a Premier League return would carry substantial reputational challenges for any buyer given the circumstances of Greenwood’s exit from England, even as interest grows across Europe.
