  • Mason Greenwood joined Getafe in a surprising summer transfer
  • The ex-Manchester United star had a lengthy layoff from the game
  • Greenwood was again instrumental to Getafe in the win over Cadiz

Mason Greenwood appears to be a man reborn as he continues to enjoy his new lease on life at La Liga club, Getafe.

The Manchester United loanee had been ostracised from the Premier League club due to issues involving an alleged assault on his partner.

However, his move to Pepe Bordalas' side during the summer transfer window, initially under the radar, has proven to be a turning point in his career.

Greenwood has displayed immense resilience and determination, leaving his troubles behind as he demonstrates his invaluable contribution to the Madrid-based club.

According to statistics from Whoscored, he has been directly involved in five goals during his 10 appearances for Getafe.

In the recent match against Cadiz, the 22-year-old was a central figure, providing a crucial assist that helped secure a vital victory for his team despite being reduced to 10 men against the Andalusian side, as reported by Marca.

The victory for Los Azulones meant they pulled further away from the murky relegation waters and closer to potential European places.

Greenwood's outstanding performance during the game did not go unnoticed, and while he may have missed out on the Player of the Match title, fans across social media have been buzzing with praise and admiration for the performance of the young England star.

Greenwood's controversial Getafe move

Meanwhile, as Sports Brief previously reported, the club came under intense scrutiny after securing Greenwood's signature.

A domestic abuse charity in Spain had formally requested Getafe to reconsider the decision to sign the ex-United striker.

Ana Bella Foundation is reported to have called out the club for 'setting a terrible example' by bringing Greenwood to Getafe.
