The striker is currently out on loan at Getafe, with United having decided to offload him at the beginning of the season after charges of attempted rape, controlling behaviour, and sexual assault against him were dropped.
An internal club investigation spanning six months was also conducted, with the English giants said to have factored in how its women's team and its commercial partners would respond to the potential reinstatement of Greenwood to the first-team squad.
Since making the temporary switch to Spain, however, the attacker has regained some form, registering 10 goals and six assists for Getafe.
As a result, there has been growing interest in his services, with United reportedly demanding £40 million (R930 million) for his potential sale.
According to iNews, a number of clubs have contacted the Red Devils for Greenwood, with Italian giants Juventus now the frontrunners for the 22-year-old star's signature.
Atletico Madrid are also said to have been monitoring the Englishman's situation, with insiders at Old Trafford indicating that selling the player is still the likeliest outcome in the next window.
