Kobbie Mainoo (Manchester United)
September 2025
Manchester United have rejected Kobbie Mainoo’s request to leave on loan after the midfielder sought more game time. He remains at Old Trafford despite struggling for minutes under Ruben Amorim, featuring only sporadically across early-season matches. United refused to sanction a move before the transfer deadline, insisting he fights for his place. Mainoo played from the bench against Burnley and started in the Carabao Cup defeat to Grimsby, but Amorim values him as midfield depth.
