Man United are looking to secure Kobbie Mainoo’s future, with a new deal this summer.
Kobbie Mainoo is the talk of the town right now. Rightly so, too.
The Englishman has hit the ground running at Manchester United. He broke into the first-team and made his mark from day one, showing real maturity in the heart of a midfield that was panic-stricken before he arrived.
It has been a whirlwind few months for the teenager who has already made his England debut since. Now looking a nigh-on certainty to feature in EURO 2024, too.
Now, United are looking to protect their asset. According to The Sun, United are set to offer a ‘lucrative’ new contract to Mainoo this summer.
As you’d expect, INEOS are said to be ‘desperate’ to keep Mainoo at the club, with Mainoo already a key man at United.
The Reds are keen to give Mainoo a salary increase, with INEOS keen to push on with United’s long-standing mantra of giving youngsters their platform to shine.
Mainoo has been at the club since the age of nine, with the player now shining at the highest level. You’d like to think that loyalty will be rewarded, with Mainoo penning new terms, giving United some security in regard to his future.
This is smart by the Old Trafford club, who are looking to secure Mainoo’s future earlier rather than later. The last thing they need is to miss out on his signature by running the risk of leaving it too late.
Hopefully, a deal is announced early on in the summer transfer window, meaning United can focus on other transfer dealings rather than worrying about Mainoo’s long term future.
