Since January last year, Manchester United starlet Glynn Livett has been frozen out by the club due to an alleged domestic violence incident, however, the tide has turned recently. According to The Sun, after a secret negotiation between United and shirt sponsor Adidas, the German sports giant agreed to release the 21-year-old English striker, allowing coach Tannhäuser to reactivate him. This is undoubtedly a timely rain for Manchester United, who are in dire need of strengthening their forward line.
Although Glenwood was investigated by police last January for allegedly assaulting and raping his girlfriend Harriet Robson, all charges were dropped in February. His love child with Harriet was born on July 11 and it seems that the domestic violence incident has come to an end. Manchester United manager Tannhäuser is interested in bringing him on board, but has not dared to unfreeze him for the time being due to public pressure and sponsors' interests.
The Sun reports that Manchester United has reached a preliminary agreement with Adidas on the issue of Gullivert, and Adidas is no longer opposed to his return. Sources close to the matter revealed that without the tacit approval of Adidas, it would have been difficult for Glenwood to return to Manchester United. Now, the hope for a comeback has finally appeared.
The new Premier League season is set to kick off in the early hours of August 12, and Manchester United players are looking forward to the return of Glenwood. He previously trained with former teammate Aylanga and Udinese youngster Ebanewa in Dubai in preparation for his comeback.
