Greenwood joined Marseille last summer in a deal valued at €30 million (£25m/$34m) from Manchester United. The move, which many initially viewed as a gamble, has proven to be a masterstroke for the Ligue 1 outfit as the 23-year-old has been in sensational form, scoring 13 goals and delivering four assists in just 20 appearances for the club.

Greenwood’s dazzling form has not gone unnoticed, with reports suggesting that European giants such as Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are monitoring his situation. However, his ability to influence games consistently has quickly endeared him to the club’s fanbase, who are eager to see him stay for the long term.

WHAT JULIEN FOURNIER SAID

Drawing a comparison to the rise of Luis Henrique, Julien Fournier told : “Look at Luis Henrique, who is on fire. A few months ago, the whole stadium was making fun of him…A Greenwood, you have to be able to keep him."

DID YOU KNOW?

United may also benefit from any potential sale, as the Premier League club is rumoured to have included a sell-on clause in the deal that sent Greenwood to France. The clause reportedly guarantees United 50 per cent of any future transfer fee, making his success at Marseille financially beneficial for his former club as well.
