<p>On the back of a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ex-man-utd-forward-mason-greenwood-doesnt-exist-in-england-anymore-impressive-form-27m-marseille-transfer/bltf68ba40d403b71ab" target="_blank">2024 transfer to Stade Velodrome</a>, Greenwood enjoyed a bright start to his spell in French football.

WHAT HAPPENED?

He has to do more, because what he is currently showing is not enough.” </p>

<p>Marseille included Greenwood among their substitutes for defeats to Lens and Paris Saint-Germain heading into the March international break. They will be back in action against Reims on Saturday, with Greenwood making an <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/mason-greenwood-roberto-de-zerbi-amid-recent-criticism-benched-by-marseille-boss-against-psg/blt06cf6d6ecad3ad3c" target="_blank">early return to training ahead of that contest – which has pleased his boss</a>.</p>
