Kobbie Mainoo
December 2025
Manchester United have decided not to entertain permanent offers for Kobbie Mainoo in January despite his lack of league starts, reaffirming their belief in the 20-year-old’s long-term potential while remaining open to a possible loan if circumstances demand game time elsewhere. Ruben Amorim insists Mainoo can still change his mind through training performances, hinting at a future deeper role if United switch to three midfielders, while citing Casemiro’s resurgence as proof that patience and persistence can restore status within his merit-based selection approach.
