As long as Gareth Southgate is in charge of the Three Lions, the 22-year-old’s chances of returning to the international fold are believed to be unlikely.
Greenwood, who is on loan at Getafe, made his first and only appearance for England in 2020, more than a year and a half before he was arrested on suspicion of attempted rape.
Since the charges he faced were dropped, rumours have suggested that the Jamaican Football Federation (JFF) have held an interest in having the forward represent Jamaica, whom the striker is eligible for through his father, Andrew.
Head coach of the nation, Heimir Hallgrimsson, has admitted this week that his door is open should Greenwood be looking to get back into international football.
“I really don’t like to talk about ‘what if’, but this, of course, has come to our mind,” he told The Athletic.
“I would love to have him in my team. Like all coaches, I would like to have the best players in our team, but it’s always up to the player himself if he wants to do it.”
Despite having been capped for England, FIFA rules would allow for Greenwood to switch his allegiance.
