Kobbie Mainoo has been linked with the move away from Manchester United in recent weeks.
The 20-year-old has struggled for gametime at Old Trafford this season, and he needs to leave the club to play more often. He has been linked with multiple clubs, but Manchester United are not keen on letting him leave.
Man United make decision on Kobbie Mainoo
According to TEAMtalk, the player’s relationship with the club has suffered, but Jason Wilcox has already informed him and his representatives that he is not going to be sold in January. It will be interesting to see if the 20-year-old can fight back and hold down the starting spot at the club.
There is no doubt that he is a talented player with a bright future. He could develop into a future star for Manchester United, but he needs regular opportunities. Sitting on the bench at Manchester United will not benefit him. Several clubs are monitoring his situation, and it remains to be seen whether they decide to come forward with an offer. It seems unlikely that the player will be allowed to leave in January. Perhaps a move in the summer might be more feasible.
Mainoo is a top talent
Mainoo has the quality to compete at the highest level, and he could develop into a star with the right guidance. Joining the right team could bring out the best in him. He needs to focus on his development and play every week. If Manchester United cannot provide him with that opportunity, he should look to force an exit in future.
Ruben Amorim is clearly not a fan of the player, and it remains to be seen whether the Portuguese manager is prepared to give him more opportunities. He is a promising young player with a bright future, and Manchester United could regret forcing him out of the club.
Kobbie Mainoo is a class act and if Amorim can’t see it then it’s him that needs to go. You only had to see when he was coming on against Bournemouth that there was a barrier between the manager and Kobbie. He was strong on the ball, calm under pressure and clever with his passing. A definite upgrade on Casemiro who doesn’t last 90 mins anymore. Amorim is strangling the life out of his career and not in keeping with United tradition of bringing through home grown talent. Amorim is an arrogant fool choosing to ignore his talent and I personally hope it comes back to bite him on the backside big time after all this is a manager who has won only 6 games out of 43 since his arrival.
Amorim’s weak point at United: bringing through and developing youth players. Strange as he was so good at this at Sporting. The team is struggling but a player like Mainoo should have been nurtured and developed to play a role.
Lacey has to be treated carefully considering his injury problems, while JJ is very young…and yet have nayof our players improved? Even Amad is still making the same kind of mistakes as before, decision making and creating chances for others not seemingly his priority.
On the other hand, the stature of the player this team needs, a masterful defensive central midfielder capable of running the team and controlling play. Not many around, if any…
