Kobbie Mainoo (Manchester United)
March 2025
Manchester United could face the surprise departure of rising star Kobbie Mainoo this summer if contract talks remain stalled.
According to the Manchester Evening News, negotiations that began in March 2024 are still ongoing, with both sides yet to find common ground. Mainoo is contracted until 2027, with an option for a further year, but a compromise is reportedly needed for him to commit long-term. The 18-year-old has been sidelined with a muscular injury since February 7 but is expected to return after the international break.
André Onana (Manchester United)
March 2025
Despite recent transfer rumors linking him with a lucrative move to the Saudi Pro League, André Onana has made it clear he intends to stay at Manchester United.
28-year-old goalkeeper will only consider leaving if told he’s no longer in the club’s plans. This comes after Sir Jim Ratcliffe recently referenced Onana in a media round as one of several underperforming or overpaid players. Head coach Ruben Amorim is expected to lead a summer overhaul but must offload players before buying.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe (Manchester United)
March 2025
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has revealed explosive details about Manchester United’s wage structure and player availability, highlighting that half of the club’s top earners have been unavailable under manager Ruben Amorim. He named Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Luke Shaw, and Mason Mount as players earning Premier League top-club wages but not contributing consistently. Ratcliffe warned this would not be tolerated under his ownership.
Ratcliffe said that the salaries of unavailable players amount to nearly half of United’s top payroll, likening it to the wage scale of a mid-table side like Nottingham Forest. With Rashford on £325k/week while on loan, Sancho costing the club half his wages at Chelsea, and Shaw sidelined for extended periods despite a lucrative renewal, Ratcliffe made it clear that future signings will follow stricter financial scrutiny. He also criticized Casemiro’s expensive deal and contrasted it with more sensible structures like Bruno Fernandes’. The club plans to reassess medical practices, reward performance-based contracts (e.g., Mainoo and Garnacho), and avoid bloated wage commitments going forward.
