    Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s alleged remarks about Mason Greenwood have stirred up strong emotions among Manchester United fans, even though there’s no verified record of him actually making them.

    The supposed comments paint a picture of deep regret—regret over letting go of a player who, in hindsight, could have been worth more than Benjamin Šeško or Bryan Mbeumo in today’s inflated transfer market.

    In reality, here’s what is confirmed. Mason Greenwood’s chapter at Manchester United closed in July 2024, when he was sold to Olympique de Marseille for around €31.6 million (approximately £26.6–£27 million).

    The deal, far from being a straightforward sale, included a significant sell-on clause—up to 50% of any future transfer profit.

    Later revelations showed that Marseille initially purchased 50% of Greenwood’s economic rights, with an agreement to buy another 10% if they qualified for the Champions League. This leaves United still holding a 40% stake in his future value.

    Such a structure means the Red Devils could still profit massively from Greenwood’s next move. Depending on his eventual selling price, Manchester United’s total earnings from the deal could surpass £50–60 million.

    That possibility becomes even more intriguing given Greenwood’s resurgence in France.

    Since arriving in Ligue 1, Greenwood has wasted no time in making a statement. His debut saw him score twice in the opening 30 minutes, instantly winning over Marseille supporters. He even equaled a remarkable record by netting two goals within a single minute in another match.

    By the end of the 2024–25 season, he had scored 21 goals, making him joint top scorer in Ligue 1 alongside Ousmane Dembélé, and also provided five assists. His performances earned him “Player of the Month” awards in both December and April.

    Given such output, it’s no surprise that Marseille now value Greenwood highly. Reports indicate they would not even consider letting him go for less than €60 million, with some speculative sources suggesting a figure closer to £82 million.

    That valuation would more than triple Marseille’s initial investment and make him a star asset in Europe.

    The narrative around Greenwood’s sale—whether viewed as a shrewd long-term profit-sharing move or a premature parting with a homegrown talent—remains a divisive topic among fans.

    For some, his departure symbolizes a short-term financial decision that cost the club its future on the pitch.

    For others, the retained stake in his rights means Manchester United still have a chance to benefit from his rise.

    What’s undeniable is that Greenwood has rebuilt his reputation and market value abroad, leaving Old Trafford with a bittersweet “what if” lingering in the air.
