Manchester United, Amorim open to selling Mainoo: "Anything can happen" | OneFootball

Napoli accelerates in the market. Antonio Conte has already informed the management that a decisive intervention in the midfield will be needed in the January window: at least one addition, preferably a young profile but already ready to make an impact. In recent weeks, one name has captured everyone's attention: Kobbie Mainoo, a talent from Manchester United, considered by many to be one of the most interesting prospects in English football.

Napoli, hunt for reinforcement: Mainoo becomes the number one target for January

The Azzurri club has intensified contacts, closely monitoring the situation of the 2005-born player, who is experiencing a technical friction at Old Trafford. Not in terms of quality, where the boy continues to be considered a valuable asset, but in terms of playing time. Meanwhile, words from England have arrived that are bound to weigh heavily. In a press conference, Rúben Amorim, at the helm of the Red Devils, commented on the persistent rumors about Mainoo's possible departure in the winter market. “The club comes first, it is our priority. We must think about the team, but after that, anything can happen,” explained the Portuguese coach, leaving a door open that has not gone unnoticed in Naples. Behind the scenes, in fact, Mainoo is pushing for more playing time. The midfielder fears missing the train for the next World Cup and wants continuity, something that United cannot currently guarantee him.
