Manchester United is willing to offer an enhanced contract to midfielder Kobbie Mainoo due to his impressive performance in his debut season with the club.
The 18-year-old player made his inaugural appearance in the Premier League in November of the previous year. He has subsequently been a revelation, with multiple outstanding performances.
The adolescent has displayed a considerable amount of maturity at his young age and is presently one of the unequivocal first-choice players under the leadership of manager Erik ten Hag.
The Sun has stated that the club has chosen to offer Mainoo a new contract that will triple his present salary of £20,000 per week.
Mainoo’s salary increased to £20,000 after he made more than ten appearances for the first team a few months ago.
The club is now prepared to extend his contract until June 2030. His salary has the potential to increase enormously depending on his performance on the field.
Mainoo possesses the capacity to ascend to the status of an exceptional midfielder.
The United graduate had a promising beginning to pre-season, but unfortunately sustained an inopportune knee injury during the United States tour match versus Real Madrid.
Consequently, he had to wait until late November to make his official debut in the league. However, he has since gained popularity with both Ten Hag and the fans.
Mainoo has had a passing accuracy rate of 85 percent in the league, while also winning 52 percent of his duels.
The youthful player has achieved an average of 1.7 successful tackles per game, in addition to 1.6 clearances and 3.3 ball recoveries.
Mainoo’s rate of losing possession is less than eight times each outing, which is commendable considering his age.
His skills are expected to improve as he gains more experience.
His versatility in playing several midfield roles makes him a perfect match for United and Ten Hag. At present, Mainoo appears to be indispensable.
