MASON Greenwood has been told to stay away from Manchester United until the club decides what to do with him.
The 21-year-old had charges of attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault all against the same woman dropped today.
But the club now wants to conduct its own internal investigation into the circumstances around the allegations brought against the player.
That has started and United has not put a time frame on how long it will take.
They did not want to begin that process previously in case it interfered with ongoing criminal proceedings.
In the meantime, Greenwood will not be able to return to the club’s Carrington Training base or be involved with the squad in any capacity, despite the case against him not going to trial.
The player broke his silence on the charges being dropped in a statement issued on Thursday.
Greenwood said: “I am relieved that this matter is now over and I would like to thank my family, loved ones and friends for their support.
“There will be no further comment at this time.”
