Lidt fra The Athletics seneste nye om Greenwood:
A month after launching the investigation, the option of reintroducing Greenwood to the club’s first-team squad as part of a possible phased return to football does remain firmly under consideration, but club sources insist no decision has yet been taken and it is one of several options, including a parting of the ways, that remains possible.
Under the scenario Greenwood stays, United would be likely to follow a phased process, taking into account the sentiment of fan groups, sponsors and the women’s team at differing stages. It would include encouraging Greenwood to receive a form of counselling or therapy, ahead of a possible broader rehabilitation.
It has also been suggested that such an approach may also include exposing Greenwood to a television interview in which he is challenged on the events that have taken him to this point.
The sources also added how, in the event the club decides to bring Greenwood back, United may seek to frame him as a young man who has made mistakes and is remorseful for his actions, while also believing they have a responsibility to help rehabilitate a player who has been on the club’s books since the age of six. United sources counter that they would only present the player in this way if they consider it to be the truth on the basis of their internal findings.
Jeg ved ikke hvor meget man skal lægge i det, men nu er det en måned siden at sigtelserne frafaldt og ifølge disse kilder kunne det jo tyde på at der bestemt er brugt tid på at lave en plan for hans benådning.
Jeg tror personligt det stadig ender med et salg, men det peger da i retning af at han i hvert fald ikke bliver kylet ud på røv og albuer og at der er en reel chance for at han bliver.
Tyrkiets transfervindue er vist stadig åbent et par dage endnu som jeg forstår det, men det virker ikke til at være en realistisk løsning så længe klubben ikke har truffet en beslutning. Havde ellers været en win-win-win som jeg ser det at få ham lidt væk.
