Mason Greenwood is no longer the subject of a police investigation in relation to alleged offences that occurred against a woman in January of last year, officers have confirmed.
The 21-year-old had been suspended by Manchester United since the allegations surfaced. He had been set to face trial in November of this year.
Chief Superintendent Michaela Kerr, GMP’s Head of Public Protection, said: "The investigation team has remained in regular contact with the legal team, providing any updates of note, and so understand the rationale for the discontinuation of proceedings at this stage, and that this decision has not been taken lightly.
