The 21-year-old has been suspended by the Old Trafford club since January 30, 2022, over allegations relating to a young woman after images and videos were posted online.
Greenwood was facing charges including attempted rape and assault until the Crown Prosecution Service announced six months ago that the case had been discontinued.
The forward has remained suspended by United throughout this period and the club had planned to announce the outcome of their internal investigation before their season starts.
But the PA news agency understands that United will no longer be announcing their decision …

Kai Havertz labelled Bukayo Saka as unbelievable as his team-mate was the catalyst for Arsenal starting their Premier League campaign with a 2-0 win over Wolves.
England winger Saka produced a wonderful cross for Havertz to head home the opener at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Provider then turned scorer in the second half when Saka cut inside Rayan Ait-Nouri and drilled low into the near post.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, Havertz said: Saka is unbelievable. There are not a lot of players like him on the planet and he is still so young.
He can get better. It is very rare to see a young player like this perform every week at the highest level.
Arsenal were impressive in the first half but were thankful to David Raya for a couple of big…

Pep Guardiola insists he will continue to prioritise the Premier League at Manchester City and feels Champions League success may still be a bridge too far next season.
City play for the first time since being crowned Premier League champions when they face Swansea City on Sunday, a dominant triumph they secured with five games to spare.
A 5-1 aggregate loss to Liverpool in the Champions League quarter-finals threatened to take some of the shine off Guardiola s achievement as his team approached the finish line domestically and the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss – now a seven-time champion across Europe s major divisions – feels sustained Premier League success is the best way to establish City as an imposing European presence.

Scotland manager Steve Clarke believes he has the depth and flexibility to cope with the loss of Kieran Tierney for next week’s Euro 2024 qualifier against Spain.
Tierney suffered a hamstring injury while playing for Real Sociedad on Saturday and Clarke has added left-back Greg Taylor and centre-back Liam Cooper to his squad.
Scotland will qualify for next summer’s finals in Germany if they get a point in Seville on October 12.
“First and foremost it’s a shame for Kieran,” Clarke said. “He got a really good move on loan to Sociedad, started really well and obviously picked up what looks like quite a significant injury.
“We will miss him but I know Kieran, he will work as hard as he can to get back as quickly as possible, and we will be there…
Manchester United legend Roy Keane saluted Marcus Rashford for proving he has the character to be the team s main man, but Gary Neville now wants him to replicate his form season after season.
Rashford is enjoying a phenomenal campaign, with his 25 goals across all competitions prior to Sunday s trip to Liverpool already his best return for a single season.
There appeared to be doubts about Rashford s long-term future at United after a hugely underwhelming 2021-22 season, but he has had a new lease of life since Erik ten Hag s arrival.
He showed real promise before the World Cup, but it is since his return from Qatar that Rashford s form has reached new heights, scoring 10 goals in his previous 10 league games ahead of Sunday.
That haul includes a run of …
Thiago Silva has already fulfilled a childhood dream by representing Brazil, but he lacks no motivation heading into the Copa America.
Brazil eight-time Copa America champions host this year s tournament and take on Bolivia in the opening match at Sao Paulo s Morumbi on Friday.
Tite s side will be without key man Neymar, who will miss the competition due to an ankle injury sustained in a 2-0 friendly win over Qatar on June 6.
Silva played just twice for Brazil after the 2018 World Cup, from which Brazil were eliminated by Belgium in the quarter-finals, and acknowledged he had been unsure whether he would make the cut for the Copa America on home soil.
I carry the passion, the pride, and the gratitude of being here. We are here on merit, for our good w…
Wayne Rooney believes Manchester United will struggle to catch Manchester City this season.
Pep Guardiola s City are firmly in control of the Premier League title race, holding a 13-point advantage over United despite drawing 1-1 at Burnley on Saturday.
Rooney played as United were beaten by Guardiola s great Barcelona side in the 2009 and 2011 Champions League finals – scoring in the latter defeat at Wembley – and he grudgingly concedes his old rivals are a pleasure to watch.
In terms of catching Manchester City, certainly not this season and, if I m honest, next season it will be very difficult, he told Sky Sports Monday Night Football programme when assessing United s prospects in the Manchester rivalry.
