Borussia Dortmund have reportedly ruled themselves out of the running for Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood in the summer transfer window.
The Bundesliga giants are one of the sides to have been credited with interest in the one-cap England international, who enjoyed a productive loan spell at La Liga side Getafe in 2023-24 – winning their Player of the Season award.
However, Greenwood is likely to permanently cut his links with parent club United.
It doesn’t appear that he will be able to return to Old Trafford, and top teams from throughout Europe, as well as a few in the Premier League, are closely monitoring his situation.
Dortmund were said to figure on that list of suitors.
But the German giants are ready to walk away from any potential recruitment scramble after holding in-house discussions.
Bundesliga commentator Kevin Hatchard has a few comments on the recent speculation.
“Conflicting reports about BVB interest in Mason Greenwood this week.
“I’m told the MUFC forward was discussed at one stage.
“But Borussia Dortmund won’t be pursuing any kind of move for him this summer.”

With Dortmund seemingly out of the picture, the likes of Juventus, Atletico Madrid and Napoli can think about formalising their interest.
Any deal for Greenwood will not be cheap, as he remains under contract in Manchester.
It remains to be seen whether anybody is prepared to meet his asking price.
