The Manchester United chief executive, Richard Arnold, has been heavily criticised for his handling of the club’s investigation into Mason Greenwood. United have now announced that Greenwood will be leaving Old Trafford after a six-month investigation into the striker’s conduct. But the TV presenter and United fan Rachel Riley has accused United and Greenwood of gaslighting people with their statements confirming the forward’s departure. In an open letter to supporters Arnold said: ‘While we were unable to access certain evidence for reasons we respect, the evidence we did collate led us to conclude that Mason did not commit the acts he was charged with.’ Greenwood’s statement said he was cleared of charges of attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault. The charges were dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service in February after key witnesses withdrew their cooperation from the investigation.
