Manchester United have confirmed that fans will be able to exchange their shirts with Mason Greenwood’s name emblazoned on the back for free.
All merchandise related to the Mason have been removed by the club from their website on Monday, with members of their furious fanbase returning their replica shirts to the megastore at their Old Trafford stadium.
Nike has suspended their sponsorship deal with Greenwood, while United’s shirt sponsors TeamViewer said they are ‘closely monitoring developments’. Official partner Cadbury, meanwhile, will not feature him on their marketing products.
A spokesperson for United has said that fans can exchange their current shirts with a new one with a different player’s name on.
Greenwood’s name has been entirely removed from the list of players on the club’s online store, with searches for his name drawing a blank.
The footballer has returned to his Cheshire mansion after being bailed by police ‘pending further investigation’ after being arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault, and threats to kill.
