It was reported that Mason Greenwood, whom Fenerbahçe is preparing to add to its squad, did not return Atletico Madrid head coach Diego Simeone's calls for two days in order to transfer to the yellow-navy team.

A striking claim has emerged from France regarding Mason Greenwood, whom Süper Lig giant Fenerbahçe is preparing to add to its squad.

DID NOT RETURN SIMEONE'S CALLS

According to L'Equipe; Spanish giant Atletico Madrid had recently come close to Fenerbahçe's financial offer in the Greenwood transfer. However, Greenwood's desire to transfer to Fenerbahçe prolonged his decision-making process and his failure to return head coach Diego Simeone's calls for two days caused significant discomfort at the Spanish club. It was also stated that the English footballer's delay in making a decision, despite telling his teammates at Marseille that he preferred Atletico Madrid, raised questions within the club management. 

ATLETICO MADRID WITHDREW FROM THE TRANSFER

Following these developments, it was reported that Atletico Madrid decided to withdraw from the transfer on Monday evening, thus giving Fenerbahçe a significant advantage in the transfer race.
