But he told Monday Night Football on Sky Sports tonight the six-month process ahead of the announcement was "pretty horrible". And he accused club chiefs of failing to be "strong and authoritative". His intervention came after the BBC's Match Of The Day host and ex-Three Lions skipper Gary Lineker broke his silence on the news. Lineker posted on X, formerly named Twitter, how he felt United's move was the "inevitable and right" end to an "untenable situation". United today announced they had come to a "collaborative decision" with the 21-year-old forward that he would be moving on. But the club did not say whether his £75,000-a-week contract would be terminated or whether he would be put on loan or sold. Greenwood hasn't played for the first team since being arrested in January last year for attempted rape, assault and coercive control. All charges against him were dropped in February but the footballer remained suspended by United. Members of Manchester United Women 's team reportedly raised concerns about Greenwood returning to the training ground. Women's charities have welcomed today's decision and told of survivors' "relief" but say more must be done by football clubs. The move was also tonight praised by Channel 4's Countdown co-host and Strictly Come Dancing star Rachel Riley , who said last week she would stop supporting United if they allowed Greenwood back.
