Thousands of eager Getafe fans turned out on a warm evening to welcome Greenwood and two other new signings.

The striker, 21, has been provided with a pathway back to football by the La Liga side.

Earlier today, Greenwood was seen posing for snaps with kids and signing their shirts and footballs in a clip which Getafe posted on Twitter.

One fan had already got his hands on a replica of Greenwood’s number 12 shirt, which he wore back-to-front as he hugged the striker.

Mason Greenwood’s girlfriend was also confirmed to have arrived in Spain ahead of his official unveiling.

Harriet Robson was seen smiling in the sunshine in a photo shared on her Instagram. 

Harriet, who has a baby with the footballer, is expected to be pitchside for Greenwood’s big welcome.

The Spanish club announced the deal just minutes before the summer transfer window deadline arrived on Friday.

United will receive no loan fee and will cover the majority of his £75,000-a-week wage during his time in Spain.

A club statement added: “The move enables Greenwood to begin to rebuild his career away from Manchester United.

“The club will continue to offer its support to Mason and his family during this period of transition.”

But the young forward may not make his debut until September 17, when Getafe host Osasuna.

Getafe also posted a snap on Twitter of Greenwood holding up the club’s blue home strip yesterday.

It was captioned “Mason Greenwood ya esta aqui” – which means “Mason Greenwood is here”.

It comes after United announced that Greenwood had “mutually agreed” to leave the club following an internal probe into his arrest.

He was arrested in October last year but all charges were dropped in February by the Crown Prosecution Service.

Greenwood still has two years left to run with the option of a further 12 months had the club wanted to take it up.

Failing to offload him would have left the club facing a payment of nearly £8million.
