Mason Greenwood’s Marseille Career at Crossroads

Former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood finds himself in a precarious position at Olympique de Marseille. Despite being the club’s leading goalscorer with 15 goals since his summer transfer, the 23-year-old has come under scrutiny from head coach Roberto De Zerbi for his recent performances.

De Zerbi has publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with Greenwood’s efforts, stating, “I expect more from him. His current contributions are insufficient given his capabilities.” This criticism led to Greenwood being benched for Marseille’s last two matches before the international break, both resulting in losses against RC Lens and Paris Saint-Germain.

In response to this challenge, Greenwood has shown initiative by returning to training earlier than required, demonstrating his commitment to regaining form and favor with the coaching staff. This proactive approach has reportedly been well-received by De Zerbi.

However, the young English forward now faces a critical period. He has been given until the end of the season to prove his worth and fully regain De Zerbi’s trust. Failure to do so could potentially result in Greenwood’s departure from the French club, despite his impressive goal tally.

As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Greenwood to see if he can rise to the challenge and secure his future at Marseille.
