Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood is set to become a father months after he was cleared of criminal rape charges, reports The Sun.
According to the publication, the girlfriend of the 21-year-old football player is pregnant, the child should be born in the summer.
In January 2022, model Harriet Robson posted photos with a split lip and bruises on her body. According to her, Greenwood beat her and raped her. Manchester United suspended the striker from training and matches, then the police arrested the 21-year-old Englishman.
In early February of this year, the UK Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) dropped the proceedings against Greenwood. The assailant was previously charged with attempted rape, assault and violent conduct. The player is still suspended but is on a £75,000-a-week salary and is under contract until 2025. The club intends to conduct an independent investigation.
Greenwood has made 129 appearances for Manchester United, scoring 35 goals and making 12 assists.
