Mason Greenwood wants to return to the Premier League this summer, according to reports.

The winger left Manchester United for Marseille last summer for around £27m, following a season on loan at Getafe.

The 23-year-old has enjoyed a prolific season in France, netting 18 Ligue 1 goals as Marseille look set to qualify for the Champions League.

Greenwood’s attitude has been called into question this season, however, with reports in France citing concerns about a lack of effort and professionalism in training.

And in April, Marseille fans made their feeling clear.

Prior to a match against Montpellier, fans in the Orange Velodrome held up a banner reading “Greenwood, Henrique, get a move on!”

Henrique, a Brazilian winger, has also faced claims calling his attitude into question.

Director of football Mehdi Benatia has dismissed the rumours, but manager Roberto De Zerbi dropped Greenwood from his starting line up for two games in March.

“No one can have more respect for him than I do. But that doesn’t change anything: I expect more from him”, the Italian said.

“He has to do more, because what he is currently showing is not enough.”

Could a return to England be possible for Greenwood?

And according to The Sun, Greenwood is desperate for a return to the Premier League.

The forward is homesick and misses his family in England, feeling that a move back to the North West of the country could be possible in the summer.

Due to the circumstances surrounding Greenwood’s departure from Manchester United, a return is unlikely this summer.

Premier Clubs are on alert, though, with the winger’s numbers in France certainly making for an appealing potential target.

The Red Devils do have a sizeable sell-on clause tied to any move Greenwood does make from Marseille.
