Osasuna Face Punishment For Mason Greenwood Chants During Getafe Debut

Osasuna Face Punishment For Mason Greenwood Chants During Getafe Debut

Osasuna could face discipline for a chant about Mason Greenwood heard in the stadium on Sunday.

Greenwood made his Getafe debut after joining on loan from Manchester United on transfer deadline day. The 21-year-old was playing in his first football match since January 2022.

He was suspended by the Red Devils following allegations made on social media. Greenwood was later charged with rape, assault, and controlling and coercive behavior.

The Crown Prosecution Service later withdrew those accusations in February 2023.

United’s internal investigation was completed in August, and the decision was taken for him to leave the club.

He joined Getafe and made his LaLiga debut as a substitute in Sunday’s 3-2 win over Osasuna.

When he entered the pitch, there were chants of ‘Mason Greenwood, die’ from the Osasuna fans.

The Athletic report that these chants were heard by match officials and a legal and disciplinary process now to follow.

Meanwhile, Osasuna coach Jogoba Arrasate condemned the chants from his supporters, but also pointed to abuse that was directed from the home fans.

“The chants of ‘F*** Osasuna’ were very bad and the chants against Greenwood were very bad, too,” he said. “He is a player who, in the end, the justice system had its say.

“He is a very good player. But if we talk about chants, we should talk about all the chants, not just some.”
