At 24 years old, Greenwood has 25 goals and 10 assists; French legend comments that he lacks the ability to be a starter for top European clubs.

The former Manchester United star, 24-year-old Greenwood, maintains his outstanding performance in his second season at Marseille in Ligue 1. So far this season, in 40 appearances across all competitions, he has recorded 25 goals and 10 assists, standing as the sole player in Europe's top five leagues to reach both 25+ goals and 10+ assists. Consequently, numerous fans tease that Manchester United let go of a prolific forward, and Manchester City or Arsenal could potentially benefit from acquiring Greenwood to enhance their offensive capabilities.

Regarding this, French football legend Marcel Desailly offered his assessment of Greenwood. Desailly stated: If you only look at his goal involvement statistics, Greenwood's numbers might seem appealing, but can he genuinely secure a starting role at elite clubs in the Premier League or La Liga? I'm not convinced. I believe Manchester City, Arsenal, Real Madrid, or Barcelona would not sign Greenwood.

From a personal perspective, Greenwood's statistics are indeed impressive, but they are achieved under the condition of having unlimited shooting opportunities at Marseille. However, his performances in high-stakes matches have consistently been poor; against strong opponents, he tends to disappear, while against weaker teams, he aggressively takes shots. Based on the abilities Greenwood currently demonstrates, top clubs in Europe's major leagues would not consider signing this English forward who has faced controversy. Firstly, due to negative public perception, and secondly, because his actual ability is limited—he remains a stats-padding type of forward without proven performances or achievements in crucial matches.
