The FA have officially announced that Manchester United wonderkid Mason Greenwood has withdrawn from the England Under-21s squad for the international break due to injury.
The nature of the injury has not been disclosed as of yet, but it will keep the 19-year-old out of the team’s contention in the Group Stages of the Under-21 European Championships.
England face Switzerland, Portugal and Croatia in the tournament during this break. Should they qualify from the group, the knockout stages of the tournament will begin at the end of May.
Greenwood, who played the entire 90 minutes and scored United’s sole goal in their FA Cup defeat to Leicester on the weekend, has won four caps for the Under-21s and one at senior level.
Here’s how some United fans reacted to the news, which may come as controversial to some:
