Manchester United forward, Mason Greenwood has been remanded after he appeared in court to answer charges related to attempted rape.
The 21-year-old is also charged with assault and repeatedly engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour.
He was arrested in January amid allegations surrounding images and videos that emerged online.
The forward, from Bowdon, spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth and address at Manchester and Salford Magistrates’ Court.
Proceedings were then adjourned by District Judge Mark Hadfield, who later made a decision to remand Mr Greenwood in custody.
His next court appearance was scheduled for 21 November at Manchester Crown Court.
The Manchester United forward appeared before magistrates in the city. Mr Greenwood had been on bail since January, but was re-arrested in Trafford on Saturday for an alleged breach of the conditions.
Wearing a grey hooded Nike jumper and grey jogging bottoms, he was flanked by two officers.
His family sat in a full public gallery in the small courtroom, along with members of the press.
The attempted rape is alleged to have taken place in October 2021. He has been suspended by the club since the incident was reported. The club on Thursday reiterated its stand that Greenwood remains suspended untill he’s cleared by the Court. (Culled from BBC Sports)
