JAKARTA - Mason Greenwood caught Atletico Madrid's attention. The Manchester United player who is being loaned to Getafe has been on Los Rojiblancos' priority transfer radar in recent months.

Atletico is getting serious about bringing in Greenwood. There is a big chance that they will get the 22-year-old player's signature permanently on the January 2024 exchange.

Atletico's interest in Greenwood peaked in the last match before the Christmas holidays. Getafe stopped 20 consecutive Rojiblancos wins with a score of 3-3 at the Civitas Metropolitano Stadium on December 20, 2023.

Greenwood appeared as a key team player even though he did not score a goal or assist. He became an important actor in Getafe's attacks that resulted in goals.

"When Greenwood is in 100% condition, we will see if he has a real level. However, he has conditions to play in any big team," Getafe coach Pepe Bordalas told Marca.

This slick appearance confirms that Greenwood's inclusion in the transfer list is not wrong. Atletico Sports Director Andrea Berta agrees with this.

He said Greenwood was a talented player who could penetrate and be dusty in the first team of Manchester United and the England national team at the age of 19 years. Two achievements that show undisputed talent.

Atletico is increasingly passionate about bringing in Greenwood. Moreover, he has appeared on the cover of The Sun who said Barcelona was also seriously eyeing him.

So far, Atletico's interest in Greenwood is not only in the mouth. They had already negotiated directly to Manchester United before the Atletico vs Getafe match.

However, Greenwood's ownership clause made Atletico not only negotiate with Man United. You see, Getafe actually has a right of 25 percent of the attacker.

Greenwood's slick appearance actually means Getafe has the intention to make it permanent. Chances are, Getafe will offer 40 million or around IDR 784 billion.

Getafe president, Angel Torres, has called Greenwood a profitable signing for the club.

"Considering to keep it? We see any possibility, even buying it. There hasn't been talk of a price yet, we've discussed the situation and seen what they're proposing."

"There is a change in share ownership at Manchester United, but we are happy. It is too early to consider whether to continue for another season or if they set prices to buy everything," Angel Torres said at Marca.

Atletico Madrid is just waiting for a decision from Manchester United. After all, the Red Devils have the majority ownership of Greenwood.
