Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood has been charged with attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour and assault leading to bodily harm.

National Daily understands that the 21-year-old is due to appear in court on Monday facing three counts relating to the same woman.

Janet Potter, the deputy chief crown prosecutor for CPS North West, said: ‘The Crown Prosecution Service has today authorised Greater Manchester Police to charge Mason Greenwood, 21, with attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

‘All three counts relate to the same complainant.’

Greenwood’s first court appearance will take place on Monday at Greater Manchester Magistrates’ Court.

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 since then, but was arrested in the Trafford area on Saturday for an alleged breach of conditions.

Within hours of the allegations surfacing online at the beginning of the year, the forward – who has made one appearance for England – was suspended from playing or training with the Old Trafford club.

Nike suspended and later terminated its sponsorship deal with Greenwood, while Electronic Arts confirmed his removal from active squads on its Fifa 22 game.
