With the transfer market having just ended a month ago, discussions are resurfacing about potential moves for the winter window. According to Fabrizio Romano, Napoli has set its sights on Kobe Mainoo, a midfielder from Manchester United who had already requested a transfer in August. The 2005-born player continues to find little space in Amorim's lineup, and for this reason, the Red Devils might decide to let him go to find continuity.

Napoli likes Mainoo for January: the Englishman would appreciate the destination

The difficult times for Manchester United continue. In 5 Premier League matches, the team led by Amorim has only collected 7 points. Among the players who are not finding much space under the management of the Portuguese coach, there is also Kobe Mainoo. The Englishman, who grew up in the club's youth team, was launched as a starter just over eighteen by Erik Ten Hag. Since Amorim took over the United bench, the 2005-born midfielder is no longer a fixed point of the club. In fact, during the summer window, he had requested a transfer to find more playing time elsewhere. The club, however, blocked his transfer, despite the interest of many clubs.

Among the most interested clubs is Antonio Conte's Napoli. The Neapolitans, who have shown a good market feeling with the Manchester clubs, had tried to approach Mainoo in the last days of the summer market. However, the discussion may not be over. As reported by Fabrizio Romano, in fact, the blues would be interested in the player also in view of Anguissa's departure for the Africa Cup. The player has already expressed his approval for the destination Napoli, where he would find his old teammates Hojlund and McTominay
