Cole Palmer dropped a cryptic comment on England team-mate Kobbie Mainoo's social media post as the Chelsea star hinted that he wants the young midfielder to be 'freed' by Manchester United. Mainoo pushed for a temporary summer move away from Old Trafford after falling out of favour under Ruben Amorim, however, United did not entertain his plea as he remained at the club.
Kobbie Mainoo is determined to leave Manchester United before the summer transfer window shuts on September 1. The young midfielder, who has fallen out of favour under manager Ruben Amorim, appeared for United for the first time this season against Grimsby Town in the Carabao Cup. He was, however, back on the bench in the club's 3-2 Premier League win over Burnley on Saturday.
Kobbie Mainoo’s future at Manchester United remains uncertain, with the 20-year-old midfielder determined to secure a loan move away from Old Trafford, despite the club's insistence that he stay and fight for his place. The England youth international has reiterated his desire to leave the club, particularly after his exclusion from the England squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, a decision made by manager Thomas Tuchel due to his lack of playing time.
Kobbie Mainoo reportedly wants a transfer to Napoli, but Manchester United are blocking an exit due to the success of Scott McTominay. A £50 million ($67m) deal is being discussed and the Italian champions are ready to offer a four-year deal for the youngster.
Manchester United have reportedly rejected Kobbie Mainoo's request for a loan move before transfer deadline. The 20-year-old midfielder, hailed as one of the club’s brightest homegrown prospects, wants regular minutes and not a season warming the bench.
Italian champions Napoli have emerged as a surprise contender to sign out-of-favour Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo this summer. Mainoo, who is struggling for game time under Ruben Amorim, is open to the idea of leaving Old Trafford in this window. The youngster is keen on playing in the Champions League this season, something Napoli will guarantee.
Manchester United's transfer stance on Kobbie Mainoo has been revealed after reported transfer enquiries from Tottenham. The 20-year-old midfielder, once hailed as one of Old Trafford’s brightest prospects, has slipped down the pecking order under head coach Ruben Amorim. It has been said that the academy graduate is now looking to secure regular minutes elsewhere.
Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are among a host of clubs who have shown interest in signing out-of-favour Manchester United midfieder Kobbie Mainoo. The United youth product lost his place in Ruben Amorim's since returning from an injury last December. In the 2025-26 campaign, the England international is yet to play a single minute in their first two matches against Arsenal and Fulham.
Ruben Amorim has revealed Kobbie Mainoo is yet to feature for Manchester United so far this season because he is currently behind Bruno Fernandes in the pecking order.
Ruben Amorim has issued an honest assessment of Kobbie Mainoo's development, conceding the Manchester United ace is having 'some issues' with the system.
