The future of England’s young and talented winger — Mason Greenwood — has entered a new phase of discussions. According to Italian sports journalist Rudy Galetti, the 23-year-old footballer, who returned to the spotlight of the football world thanks to his productive performance at the French club “Marseille”, may now head toward Saudi Arabia.
According to the information shared by Galetti, the management of Saudi Arabia’s prestigious club — “Al Nassr” — has contacted Greenwood and expressed their intention to add him to their squad. Notably, Greenwood responded positively to this offer. One of the reasons mentioned is his desire to play in the same team as Portuguese world star Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mason previously shared the pitch with Ronaldo during the 2021–2022 season at “Manchester United”. It’s likely that the team atmosphere and mutual respect among the stars back then left a lasting impression on him.
However, this transfer may not go smoothly. It has been reported that “Al Nassr’s” transfer budget for this summer is limited. This means it may not be enough to meet all the coaching staff’s requests. As a result, Greenwood’s move may face financial barriers.
At the same time, Greenwood’s stats at “Marseille” prove that he’s worth the transfer. In the 2024/25 season, he played 34 matches in the French league, scored 21 goals, and made 5 assists — significantly contributing to his team’s success. These results made him the club’s top scorer.
What’s interesting for fans is that this potential transfer could become a big event not only from a sports perspective but also from a marketing and fan engagement standpoint. Greenwood’s possible move to the Saudi league, especially playing alongside Ronaldo, will likely become a hot topic in the football world.
Now, the football community awaits the next official statements. Will we see Greenwood in an “Al Nassr” jersey or not? The answer will become clear in the coming days. But one thing is certain — every step this young star takes remains under the spotlight of football fans.
