Manchester United have issued a statement after allegations emerged that striker Mason Greenwood had attacked a woman.

“Manchester United does not condone violence of any kind,” it added.

Greater Manchester Police also said it had been made aware of images and videos circulating on social media.

“Inquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances,” a spokesman for the force added.

The images and allegations were posted on Instagram on Sunday morning and deleted hours later.

The 20-year-old footballer, who made his debut for the club in March 2019, signed a four-year deal in February 2021 after rising up through the ranks of the United academy.
