Mason Greenwood, currently at OM, could bring millions to Manchester United thanks to a clause in his contract.
Since his transfer to theMarseille Olympic for 26 million euros last summer, Mason Greenwood is experiencing a sporting renaissance. After 17 years at Manchester United, the striker has regained his momentum in Ligue 1. In just 17 games in all competitions, he scored 11 goals, quickly becoming a key figure in the Marseille attack.
This return to form could have significant financial repercussions for Manchester United. Although the club have officially moved on from Greenwood, the terms of the transfer include a hefty sell-on clause, which could prove very lucrative.
A strategic resale clause
During negotiations with OM, Manchester United have included a resale clause which could reach up to 50%, according to TBR Football. This means that if Greenwood is transferred to another club, half of the transaction amount would go to the Red Devils.
With impressive performances, Greenwood is already attracting the attention of Europe's biggest clubs. According to sources, teams such as Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid, Juventus and FC Barcelona are closely monitoring his development in France.
A rising valuation
The media are talking about a possible transfer of Greenwood for up to 70 million euros. If such a transaction materializes, Manchester United could recover almost 35 million eurosa sum significantly higher than what they had initially received when he left for Marseille.
Mason Greenwood's future remains uncertain, but his impact in League One cannot be ignored. If his departure to a major European club materializes, it would strengthen Manchester United's financial position. The success of this resale clause also highlights the importance of a well-thought-out strategy when transferring key players.
