After the complaint of domestic violence was made public, Mason Greenwood, a footballer for the English national team and Manchester United, has been eliminated from the famous video game FIFA . The company that owns the rights to the game, EA Sports, has not yet published this information.
This decision by the FIFA programmers 2022, comes after Manchester United itself announced that the player had been removed of the squad and would not be allowed to access the club’s facilities while the police authorities kept the investigations active.
In turn, some sponsors, such as the sports brand Nike, have disassociated themselves from the figure of the soccer player since their policies against gender violence are quite strict.
Mason Greenwood was reported by his girlfriend last Sunday to through social networks, for allegedly having violently assaulted her, to the point that in the published photos, the young woman appeared with blood on her face and several bruises on her body.
Likewise, the alleged victim provided an audio in which the athlete forced him to have sexual relations. The player is currently detained while the authorities carry out the investigation.
It should be noted that although Greenwood was eliminated from the United squad in the aforementioned video game, he still appears in the “Ultimate Team” mode, something that will surely be temporary while investigations are carried out.
