Euro 2020: Mason Greenwood pulls out of England squad

Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood will not play at this summer’s European championship after withdrawing from England’s squad due to injury.

Greenwood’s withdrawal from the squad was confirmed by Manchester United on Tuesday, the same day Gareth Southgate is expected to name his final squad for the tournament.

A statement read: “Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood has withdrawn from the provisional England Euro 2020 squad, in order to recover fully from an underlying injury that also kept him out of the Under-21 European Championship in March.

“Mason’s club appearances were managed carefully to maintain his availability through the intensive 2020/21 Premier League and Europa League schedules.

“But a further spell of tournament football would not be beneficial and Mason will remain at Manchester United to recuperate and prepare for pre-season training.”
