Mason Greenwood has been released from police custody, the player who was arrested based on rape, assault and threat to kill has been released on bail. The player is expected to return to his house and remain there for now but will be called upon as the investigation continues.
Manchester United previously said the forward would not return to training or matches until further notice and so he will not be back to training just yet. Greater Manchester Police said Greenwood was arrested after the force “became aware of online social media images and videos posted by a woman reporting incidents of physical violence”.
It said magistrates had granted a second extension to keep him in custody until Wednesday but he had now been bailed pending further investigations. Investigations are still ongoing but for now, he is in his house but could be invited by the police at any time.
