Gary Lineker has admitted he is “really worried” about Ruben Amorim’s handling of Manchester United star Kobbie Mainoo. The teenager, once seen as a cornerstone of the Red Devils’ future, has struggled for minutes this season despite his reputation as one of England’s brightest prospects. Lineker says the situation is “slightly baffling” given the midfielder’s talent and potential.
Kobbie Mainoo is in an "uncomfortable" situation at Manchester United at the moment due to his reduced playing time, according to head coach Ruben Amorim. However, the Portuguese manager has absolutely no doubt that the young Englishman can become one of the best midfielders in the world in the near future, drawing comparisons with Paris Saint-Germain's Vitinha.
Kobbie Mainoo has reportedly had concerns over his Manchester United future for months as the midfielder eyes a January exit. Mainoo was once hailed as the heartbeat of United’s next generation, but fast-forward to September 2025, and the 20-year-old is facing the harshest dilemma of his young career: fight for scraps at Old Trafford or walk away temporarily to save his England dreams.
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.
