Sport says Simeone viewsGreenwood as an excellent attacking option. The sudden departure of Antoine Griezmann and Nico Gonzalez has amplified the urgency for Atletico to secure high-quality reinforcements. Greenwood has rebuilt his career since leaving Manchester United. Following a loan spell at Getafe where he scored 10 goals in 36 games, he joined Marseille permanently in July 2024 for £26.6 million.
In France, Greenwood has thrived, finishing as the Ligue 1 top scorer in the 2024-25 season with 21 goals. Last season, he recorded 26 goals and 11 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions. Overall, he boasts a remarkable record of 48 goals in 81 appearances for Marseille, cementing his status as one of Europe's most dangerous attackers.
