Mason Greenwood laced up in seven-year-old Nike boots during a training session with his new Getafe team-mates as he attempts to rebuild his career.
The Manchester United forward is on-loan at the LaLiga club after it was mutually decided that his future remained away from the English giants following an internal investigation.
Greenwood previously had charges of attempted rape and assault dropped by the Crown Prosecution Services and the player denied any wrongdoing.
However, his original arrest in January 2022 and subsequent charges led to the player being suspended by United while other companies ended sponsorship deals with the 21-year-old.
Greenwood remains without a boot sponsor after Nike previously dropped the striker from their roster of footballers and later decided against renewing his deal.

He has since been unveiled as Getafe’s new star striker after completing a Deadline Day move to the club and opted for an old pair of boots during a recent training session.
The Bradford-born former England international pulled on a pair of Nike Mercurial Superfly 4 boots as he ramps up preparations for his expected debut later this month.
Nike have since released a further five versions of the prestigious boot model.
Greenwood was previously seen training in a park wearing Nike Phantom GX boots while United waited to decide on whether to reintroduce him back into the first-team.
His appearance in Spain has received heavy criticism, however, Getafe have been doing their best to make Greenwood feel at home in his new surroundings.

The club haven’t been shy in making him the centre-piece of their recent media output with Greenwood being unveiled in front of eager Getafe supporters and have released a lengthy video showcasing his arrival at the club.
Greenwood demonstrated his delight at being given a new opportunity in senior football after agreeing a move to Spain and said: ‘Hi Getafe fans, it’s Mason here.
‘I’m so happy to be here and I can’t wait to get started.’
The striker will have to get up to speed following a year away from team training but could make his debut on September, 17 when Getafe host Osasuna.
