Career

[edit]

Western Sydney Wanderers

[edit]

Raised in Cherrybrook, New South Wales, Greenwood played for Spirit FC and APIA Leichhardt in their junior squads, before signing for Western Sydney Wanderers in 2018.[2] Greenwood was called-up to the first-team amid a squad crisis after Vedran Janjetović, Nicholas Suman, and Danijel Nizic were ruled out with injuries.[3][4] He made his A-League debut at Central Coast Stadium on 20 April 2019 in a 3–1 defeat to Central Coast Mariners.[5] Greenwood featured in the next match a week later, facing another 1–0 defeat away against Melbourne Victory.[6]

During the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia, Greenwood departed Western Sydney Wanderers and later returned to NWS Spirit.[7]
