Man Utd
Manchester United (Man Utd, England) will eventually break up with striker Mason Greenwood, born in 2001,
who was cleared of attempted rape and assault charges.
Manchester United issued a statement on its website on the 21st (local time) and announced its disposition,
saying, “We have completed an internal investigation into Greenwood’s allegations.”
“Analysis of the evidence obtained by United has concluded that Greenwood did not commit a crime.
However, as he has publicly admitted, he made a mistake,
which he must hold himself responsible for.”
“People involved, including Greenwood, recognized that it would be difficult to resume a career here.
It was mutually agreed that it was appropriate for Greenwood to leave Old Trafford.”
According to the Daily Mail
Greenwood also said in a statement: “I have learned that all violence or abuse is wrong.
“I didn’t do anything worthy of standing in court, and I was cleared of all charges in February,” he said, “but I fully admit that I made a mistake.”
“I am learning how to set an example as a footballer and accept the responsibilities I take on,” he said.
“Today’s decision was in consultation with United and my family. It’s the best decision,” he said.
In January of last year, a woman who claimed to have been assaulted by Greenwood posted photos of bruises on her body on social media,
and the police launched an investigation, and Greenwood was charged with attempted rape and assault in October.
Originally, the trial was scheduled to take place on November 27 this year,
but the prosecution suddenly stopped the prosecution in early February.
The prosecution said, “It is difficult to come up with a conviction realistically
by combining the withdrawal of the testimony of key witnesses and the newly revealed contents.” 바카라사이트
