According to talkSPORT, Barca sent scouts to watch Greenwood play this season in the Getafe shirt. The Catalan team is not the only big man in Spain watching Greenwood. Atletico Madrid is also very interested in this striker.
Greenwood was loaned to Getafe by MU in the 2023 summer transfer window. He has 4 goals and 3 assists for coach Jose Bordalas’ team this season.
In addition to Greenwood, Barca also plans to add many recruits to their squad in January. Vitor Roque will sign from Athletico Paranaense and join Robert Lewandowski, Joao Felix, Raphinha, Ferran Torres, and Lamine Yamal on the attack. Blaugrana is also said to want to buy Felix permanently at the end of the season.
As for Getafe, they also want to buy Greenwood outright in the context of more competition from other mid-range teams such as Valencia and Real Sociedad.
Getafe is said to only have to pay 80% of the agreed price if they buy him from Man United. The Madrid team will also earn 20% of the transfer fee if the Red Devils sell Greenwood to another club. This is a clause in this player’s loan contract.
Man United is not expected to make a final decision on Greenwood’s future until the spring of 2024.
