After a hearing at Manchester’s Minshull Street Crown Court, the Manchester United footballer, who is charged with attempted rape, assault, and controlling and coercive behavior, was granted bail.

Manchester United’s Mason Greenwood has been released on bail after a private hearing.

The footballer, who is charged with attempted rape, assault, and controlling and coercive behavior, was granted bail after the hearing at Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester.

All three charges relate to the same woman.

The player was first held in January over allegations relating to a young woman after images and videos were posted online.

He had been on bail but was arrested on Saturday for an alleged breach of conditions.

The attempted rape is alleged to have happened in October 2021.

The controlling and coercive behavior relates to a period between November 2018 and October this year, where he is alleged to have made threatening and derogatory comments towards the complainant, as well as accessing and monitoring her social media accounts.

The charge of assault occasioning actual bodily harm is dated December 2021.

The forward, who has made one appearance for England, has been suspended from playing or training with the Old Trafford club.

Nike also suspended and later terminated its sponsorship deal with him, while Electronic Arts confirmed he had been removed from active squads on its Fifa 22 game.
