JAKARTA - Manchester United's Mason Greenwood attended his first hearing in court on charges of attempted rape. The 21-year-old is known to have arrived at Manchester Court and Salfordmen's on Monday, October 17 local time.

He came there after being detained by the police for two nights.

BBC Sport reported that Greenwood came wearing a gray Nike boxer and jogging pants in the same color. He arrived accompanied by two officers.

The player, who plays as an attacker, came to confirm his name, date of birth, and residential address. However, the trial was postponed by District Judge Mark Hadfield.

Greenwood has been charged with assault and has repeatedly been involved in controlling and coercion behavior. He was arrested in January this year amid allegations surrounding images and videos circulating on the internet.

He was later released on bail in the same month, but was recaptured at Trafford on Saturday last weekend for allegedly violating the terms.

The rape attempt was allegedly carried out by Greenwood in October 2021. Meanwhile, control and coercion behavior occurred in the period between November 2018 and October 2022.

When arrested recently, Greenwood allegedly threatened, insulted and monitored the social media accounts of the complainant. The alleged attack that caused injury to the victim occurred in December 2021.

This issue led to Greenwood suspended by Manchester United. The club will remain at the same stance during the court process.
