United ready to sell star midfielder for £60m, PL rivals prepared to make shock move – report

United ready to sell star midfielder for £60m, PL rivals prepared to make shock move – report

Manchester United are prepared to listen to offers for Kobbie Mainoo, who has attracted interest from Tottenham Hotspur.

Mainoo was a notable absence from Ruben Amorim’s starting lineup in the Premier League opener, especially as the academy midfielder enjoyed an encouraging pre-season.

Amorim also overlooked Mainoo in the second half, as he replaced Casemiro with Manuel Ugarte with the hosts trailing 1-0 against Arsenal.

Manchester United could sell Kobbie Mainoo

According to Givemesport, United are willing to “sacrifice” Mainoo to offset their “huge summer outlay.”

United are interested in signing a defensive midfielder this summer. However, they have splurged £200m on revamping their frontline.

The 20-year-old midfielder is “up for grabs at £60m” as the club’s hierarchy try to avoid potential PSR issues. United are supposedly looking to get rid of Alejandro Garnacho for the same reason.

Spurs set their sights on Mainoo

It is further claimed that Spurs are “waiting to take the bait.” The England international has emerged as a potential transfer target for the North Londoners in the final days of the transfer window. 

James Maddison recently suffered a potential season-ending injury. As such, Thomas Frank is keen to sign a new attacking midfielder.

Spurs have failed in their pursuits of Morgan Gibbs-White and Eberechi Eze. The former has renewed his contract at Nottingham Forest and the latter has agreed to move to North London, but to join Arsenal.

Mainoo is not a like-for-like replacement for Maddison, but the United midfield gem fits their “brief for a young, dynamic midfielder.”

Interestingly, Amorim frequently used Mainoo in the advanced position behind the striker last campaign, as the United head coach had some worries about his defending. Still, the youngster impressed with his close control and link-up ability in the final third.

As such, it is difficult to see Ineos giving up on him so quickly and selling him, especially to their Premier League rivals. It is best to take the claim with a pinch of salt.
