Mason Greenwood breaks silence after attempted rape and assault charges against Man United forward dropped

United say there is no timeframe for its conclusion, and the forward – capped once by England – will not train or play before the investigation ends.

A CPS spokesperson said there was “no longer a realistic prospect of conviction” but continued to “encourage any potential victims to come forward and report to police and we will prosecute wherever our legal test is met”.

Greenwood’s solicitors have been contacted for any further comment.

He was first held by police in January 2022 over the allegations after images and videos were posted online.

He was bailed but was arrested in October for an alleged breach of conditions.

Within hours of the allegations surfacing online at the beginning of the year, the forward – who has made one appearance for England – was suspended from playing or training with the Old Trafford club.
