Masson Greenwood has been removed from eFootball and PES due to sexual assault allegations

It is reported that Manchester United footballer Masson Greenwood also currently has been accused of rape and assault by a woman on Instagram.  And after that, he had been arrested by Greater Manchester Police. It seems that Manchester United has said  Greenwood will not play for the club until further notice. Konami also has been declared as it has been removed Mason Greenwood from its football titles and that means PES 2021 and eFootball. The publisher said in a statement:

“ In light of the serious allegations made against Mason Greenwood, the player will be removed from our football titles until further notice.”

“Specifically for PES 2021 on mobile, users cannot newly obtain the player, but existing owners are unaffected. KONAMI condemns violence of any kind. While police inquires are ongoing it would be inappropriate to comment further.”

Greenwood also remains in Football Manager for the moment. It seems that Developer Sports Interactive said in a statement it “has not yet made  a decision as to Mason Greenwood’s status  in Football Manager 2022 and will not do so until the finding of the current occasions  where  players have been suspended by their clubs under similar circumstances, we have removed them from the game at the earliest opportunity.”

It seems that the news of the player’s arrest has led to a rush among companies to dissociate themselves and their products: Sporting brand Nike quickly suspended its relationship with Greenwood while EA announced the player’s removal from FIFA products.

Greenwood also had been re-arrested last week on suspicion of sexual assault and making threats to kill per the BBC and has now been released on bail pending further investigations.

A big thanks for the source.
