Greenwood has been suspended by the club since he was charged with attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm in October last year.
Those charges were withdrawn in February but he is still suspended while the club carry out their investigation over whether the 21-year-old brought Manchester United into disrepute and therefore breached his contract.
He is on the retained list confirmed by the Red Devils as he is still under contract, although the club state that the investigation is not impacted by that.
The striker has not played for Manchester United since 22 January 2022 when he started in a 1-0 win over West Ham in the Premier League.
David De Gea is not on the retained list as his contract despite his contract coming to an end on 30 June, although the announcement confirmed: ‘Discussions remain open with David De Gea over a potential new contract.’
Leaving the club are the likes of Phil Jones, Axel Tuanzebe, Ethan Galbraith and Di’Shon Bernard, while Eric Hanbury, Charlie Wellens and Manni Norkett are leaving United’s academy.
