Mason Greenwood's development at Manchester United has been aided greatly by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
DON'T MISS:
Greenwood, on the other hand, had a rocky start to the 2020/21 season after being involved in a scandal over violating COVID-19 protocols.
In the weeks that followed, the 19-year-form old's deserted him, but he is now back to his highest.
The boss of the Norwegian national team has discussed why he likes the youngster on the right flank.
“Mason isn't just a natural finisher – he's a natural footballer,” he added.
He's so smooth, and he's grown so much this season.”
DON'T MISS:
“You can see his body developing and him becoming better.
His performance is improving, and he will undoubtedly begin to score more goals.”
“I've been very surprised and pleased with his progress this season.
He's emerged from that adversity as a stronger person and a better athlete.
During this time, many people have urged Solsjaer to play Greenwood as a striker rather than a right-winger, but the manager has resisted the inclination.
Perhaps in the future, he will play as a central striker, but I believe it is quite a few years away.
Being a center-forward in the Premier League is most likely the most difficult place to play.”
“For the time being, I believe Mason is better suited to playing the big position, falling into pockets, seeking room, and running in behind.”
“I don't want him facing goal with two center-backs up his backside.
I believe we've found a decent way to grow him, but he might end up as a No. 9.”
This implies that he will not be seen as a first-choice striker in the immediate future by United.
With Edinson Cavani’s future at Old Trafford still in doubt, we may see the Red Devils stepping into the market to find a new number-nine.
