MASON GREENWOOD issued a 52-word statement about his future after Getafe fans implored him to stay with a new chant.

The 22-year-old Manchester United forward has spent the season on loan at the Spanish club.

He also played the complete 90 minutes when Getafe lost 2-1 at home to Mallorca in the last LaLiga match of the season.

Greenwood’s future is uncertain as he enters the final year of his United contract.

However, the forward delivered a message to fans by posting a statement on social media.

It read: “I am really grateful to the Getafe family and fans for an incredible season.

“Thank you for making me feel welcome and part of your family. I liked every moment with my teammates and club.

“A bitter sweet ending, but it was a pleasure to play for you, I wish you all the best.”

Meanwhile, fans devised a new chant for Greenwood in what could be his final outing for Getafe.

They chanted “Mason, stay” during Getafe’s lap of honour at the end of the Mallorca game.

Greenwood responded to their chants with a thumbs up.

Fans in the grandstand recognized him in his No.12 shirt and tried to attract his attention before he went down the tunnel.

Angel Torres, the president of Getafe, has also expressed a wish to maintain the United loanee beyond this season.

Despite their demands for him to stay in Spain, Greenwood’s football future remains uncertain.

He finished the season with 36 appearances and eleven goals across all competitions for Getafe.

It was his first term back on the pitch after being suspended by the Red Devils in January 2022 before charges nine months later of attempted rape, assault and controlling and coercive behaviour towards a woman, which he strongly denied.

After criminal charges were dropped in February 2023, United briefly considered reintegrating their academy product before a quick U-turn, deciding the player — who has a contract until summer 2025 — was no longer in their plans.

With a return to England highly unlikely, Greenwood has attempted to reignite his career in Europe following a loan move last September.

There have since been links to the likes of Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Napoli.

But the chances of Getafe securing another loan move are slim, with United keen to cash in on the former England ace before his deal expires.

Getafe president Torres has been vocal on wanting to tie Greenwood down again. But he said: “Nothing has changed, we still depend on Manchester United. I don’t think there will be quick news.”

Greenwood’s potential farewell — in which he played 90 minutes — was marred by an injury as Getafe keeper David Soria’s collided with  Mallorca’s Cyle Larin.

Soria needed lengthy treatment with an ambulance forced to enter the pitch  but the Spanish keeper eventually walked off the pitch before being subbed.

Greenwood had chances before his side went ahead on 48 minutes through Gaston Alvarez.

But they were hit by two last-gasp goals from Vedat Muriqi then Pablo Maffeo.
