"Mainoo will push to leave in January, I have no doubt. It's crazy the way he's been treated, but Amorim isn't the only one to blame, as Man United were testing the waters about interest in him during the summer. All of the noise coming out of the club was that they would be prepared to let him go for the right price because of their financial situation."
"If you keep telling a player he's not wanted by the club and the manager, even if you later change your minds, he's not going to want to stick around. Mainoo works hard, he's a creative player, an excellent passer of the ball. He's not a powerhouse or a flying machine, but he's a very, very good footballer. The fact he continues to be left out of the side and isn't even coming off the bench,"
Manchester United expect incoming signings in January and anticipate a few departures. Kobbie Mainoo has fallen out of favour under Ruben Amorim and is moving toward an exit. He has recorded zero Premier League starts this season, making all 10 appearances from the bench. Chelsea are favourites to sign Mainoo, who intends to seek a January move. United explored interest in him during the summer and indicated willingness to sell for the right price due to financial constraints, which unsettled the player. Mainoo is described as hard-working, creative and an excellent passer capable of starting for many top clubs.
