Reds’ Bold Interest: Liverpool Eye Mason Greenwood Amid Marseille Breakout

Liverpool is now considering acquiring Mason Greenwood following his arrival at Marseille last summer as the club market continues to intensify before summer. Recent reports show Liverpool among many clubs who joined the pursuit to sign the 23-year-old, generating enthusiasm from major European teams.

When Manchester United decided to sell Mason Greenwood in 2024 Marseille completed his deal for a maximum price of £26.6 million (€32m). The change of team has been beneficial for Greenwood because he scored 15 times and set up three assists across 25 Ligue 1 matches.

Top European clubs Barcelona, Juventus, and Bayern Munich are monitoring his sharp performance in the French league. The staff at AS Monaco rates Mason Greenwood’s worth at approximately €75 million according to Roberto De Zerbi.

Liverpool Will Try Their Luck For Mason Greenwood

The enticing price makes a Liverpool transfer doubtful for Greenwood. Transfers of players from Manchester United to Liverpool exist only exceptionally because of the intense animosity between these two clubs throughout history.

The deep-seated tension between Manchester United and Liverpool has led to only two players making the transfer between the clubs during the past several decades: Paul Ince and Michael Owen. The top-scoring talent of Marseille faces opposition from the club ownership for at least one more season following his dominant play.

Liverpool continues to search for different attacking talent additions during this summer transfer period. Manager Arne Slot currently scouts forward positions after facing rumours about Darwin Núñez possibly leaving his team.

The leading contender for Newcastle United arrives from Alexander Isak. The historical connection and fierce United-Manchester rivalry, along with the lower price, make it improbable for Isak to sign with Liverpool.

The upcoming summer transfer window brings an unclear future for Greenwood because of the uncertain clubs he should join. Participating in European elite teams or staying at Marseille for his renaissance currently buzzes around the transfer possibilities for the player’s future.
