A man has been arrested on suspicion of rape and GBH after Manchester United footballer Mason Greenwood was suspended from playing or training with the club, following allegations he was violent towards a woman.
Greater Manchester Police said they had been made aware on Sunday of "online social media images and videos posted by a woman reporting incidents of physical violence".
The force said: "An investigation was launched and following inquiries we can confirm a man in his 20s has since been arrested on suspicion of rape and assault. "He remains in custody for questioning. "Inquiries are ongoing."
Manchester United have announced that Greenwood will not train or play for the Premier League club until further notice.

I had to Google it, and it took a minute to get beyond WGBH results since we do call it GBH here in Boston.

These young English studs need to cool their jets, although it may be too late for Mason. Wasn't it him and Phil Foden with that mess in Iceland?

(46,154 posts)4. Phil Foden & Mason Greenwood 'tried to sneak FOUR girls into England hotel' in Covid-19 breach shame
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/12612392/phil-foden-mason-greenwood-girls-iceland/
England boss Gareth Southgate chucked the youngsters out of the national team camp after they celebrated their Three Lions debuts by breaking strict coronavirus guidelines.
Icelandic beauties Nadia Sif Lindal Gunnarsdottir, 20, and Lara Clausen, 19, hung out with the footballers after being invited into the England hotel. But MailOnline claim that Foden, 20, and Greenwood, 18, had been chatting up at least four local ladies ahead of landing in Reykjavik.
Anita Gunnarsdottir was filmed chatting to the players with a friend but insists she did not venture to the hotel. She is quoted as saying: "I didn't meet them. I'm not one of the girls who went to the hotel." Leaked Snapchat clips showed the stars, who ply their club trade with Manchester City and Manchester United, hosting Nadia and Lara after England's 1-0 win over Iceland.
At one point, City playmaker Foden flashed his bum at the girls, who did not enter the national team's secure Covid-19 bubble. The rule breach earned both players a £1,360 fine from local police, with further punishment expected from club and country. Southgate dismissed the pair on Monday morning, barring them from breakfast and training with the squad before they boarded a flight home.
