"The England international is struggling for playing time under Ruben Amorim, and this has led to speculation over his future at Old Trafford. It was recently reported that as many as five clubs were keen to sign Mainoo this summer, according to the Daily Mail, with Napoli mentioned as one of them. Now a report from ESPN has suggested that Mainoo could look again at that potential move for January if his situation involving his playing time hasn't improved by then."
"In truth, this probably seems like the best solution for the talented 20-year-old right now, for a variety of reasons. As well as seemingly falling down the pecking order under Ruben Amorim, it would probably generally be a good move for Mainoo to get away from this struggling club for a while. So many players have struggled to shine at MUFC before going on to improve elsewhere, so that could end up being an ideal move for Mainoo's development."
Kobbie Mainoo, a 20-year-old central midfielder, is struggling for playing time under Ruben Amorim at Manchester United and could seek a loan to Napoli in January if opportunities do not improve. Up to five clubs were reportedly interested in him over the summer, with Napoli named among them. Mainoo is reportedly not pushing for a permanent exit but favors a temporary move to regain regular minutes. A loan would give him match experience away from a struggling club and could accelerate development, since several players have revitalized careers after temporary moves away from Manchester United. Regaining Amorim's trust remains pivotal.
