A man in his 20s has been arrested on suspicion of rape and assault, police have said, after Manchester United suspended the footballer Mason Greenwood. Greater Manchester police said on Sunday they had seen “social media images and videos posted by a woman reporting incidents of physical violence”. The force added: “An investigation was launched and following inquiries, we can confirm a man in his 20s has since been arrested on suspicion of rape and assault. He remains in custody for questioning. Inquiries are ongoing.” A statement from United on Sunday afternoon read: “Mason Greenwood will not return to training or play matches until further notice.” In an earlier statement, the club said it was aware of images and allegations circulating on social media, adding: “Manchester United does not condone violence of any kind.” Attempts have been made to contact Greenwood for comment. The Manchester United Supporters Trust (MUST) posted on Twitter: “The club has now confirmed that Mason Greenwood will not return to training or play matches until further notice. MUST fully support the decision of the club in this regard.”
