Mason Greenwood was removed from FIFA 22 in a Tuesday update.
The Manchester United striker no longer appears in the popular computer game’s offline modes, according to the Daily Mail, following a database update for all platforms, including Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
His FIFA 22 Ultimate Team item is still operational, according to the Manchester Evening News, and can be swapped on the game’s FUT 22 transfer market.
Greenwood, 20, was arrested on allegations of rape and assault after allegedly abusing an 18-year-old student on Sunday afternoon.
Greater Manchester Police were on Monday given more time to question him.
It came as United’s most high-profile players, including David de Gea, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Pogba have appeared to unfollow Greenwood on Instagram, despite following other squad members.
Mason Greenwood could be held in police custody until Thursday evening, MailOnline has been told.
