Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood has been forced to pull out of England’s Euro 2020 squad through injury.
The Manchester United winger came into the summer tournament in terrific form with six goals in his last eight Premier League matches and looked set to provide Gareth Southgate with another option in attack.
However, a statement read: “Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood has withdrawn from the provisional England Euro 2020 squad, in order to recover fully from an underlying injury that also kept him out of the Under-21 European Championship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.”

It's quite sad to see some comments of people stating "If life gives you Mason, make it Mount, not Greenwood". Both are exceptional talents. As football fans, can't we praise both lads? Okay fair enough, Mount is a UCL winner but Greenwood is only 19 and has a lot of years left in him. It's a big deal to break into the England squad at the age of 18.

Tough luck for young Greenwood but his time will come for sure. I'm sure he'll be trying his best in the next 2 years to challenge for a spot in the World Cup. Good luck to him.
