Greenwood, with only one appearance for England, which came against Iceland in September 2020, finds himself on loan at Getafe and is unlikely to receive a call-up from Gareth Southgate for the Euro 2024 tournament in June.
Following the Crown Prosecution Service’s decision to drop charges against him in February 2023—charges of attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behavior, and assault resulting in actual bodily harm, all of which he denied—the 22-year-old opted to continue his career away from Manchester United and joined Getafe.
Over the past few years, there have been several reports suggesting that the Jamaican Football Federation (JFF) would welcome Greenwood’s decision to represent Jamaica instead of England. Greenwood is eligible to play for Jamaica through his father, Andrew.
Manager Hallgrimsson confirmed Greenwood’s potential inclusion in the Jamaican team during a CONCACAF Nations League preview event in Dallas on Tuesday.
He expressed his desire to have Greenwood on the team but emphasized that the ultimate decision lies with the player himself.
While at Getafe since September, Greenwood has made a significant impact, contributing five assists and seven goals. His impressive performances have even sparked rumors of a potential summer transfer to Barcelona.
United’s new co-owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, has indicated that the team will assess Greenwood’s future at the conclusion of the season.
