Kobbie Mainoo sends Man United fans clear message amid contract negotiations

Kobbie Mainoo has sent Manchester United supporters a clear message as the teenager negotiates a new contract at Old Trafford.

Mainoo’s season at United has been impressive, capturing the attention of fans and pundits—such as Roy Keane—alike.

Quickly emerging as a key player in Erik ten Hag’s squad, Mainoo has consistently demonstrated his skill and versatility on the pitch, contributing both defensively and offensively.

The teenager has scored three goals this term, with each of them being impressive strikes in three different scenarios. The standout came during the 2-2 draw against Liverpool.

Mainoo’s impact has exceeded the expectations of many, with his blend of technical prowess, intelligence and commitment shining through in a dim season for the club.

His emergence and performances have made a new contract a hot topic around Old Trafford, with United hoping to tie down the midfielder on another long-term deal with a wage packet that reflects his growing importance to the team.

Manchester City have been interested in Mainoo from a young age and there have also been reports about potential interest from Real Madrid.

However, on Friday, his 19th birthday, Mainoo posted an image of himself when he was younger on Instagram, sending a clear message.

In a collage of photos, Mainoo included one from his younger years wearing a United shirt. He has always been a fan of the club, and the upload serves as a reminder to supporters while he negotiates a new deal.

Fabrizio Romano recently claimed that the Reds were looking to accelerate the move and they will be hoping to have the teenager tied down by the end of the season.
