Regardless of Manchester United outcomes for the rest of the season, whether it culminates in Champions League qualification or not, the standout development remains the emergence of Kobbie Mainoo. Despite turning 19 next month, Mainoo is not just the future but the present of United’s midfield.
Discussions for a new contract are underway, indicating his importance to the club’s plans. While Mason Mount provides quality backup, the focus this summer will be on identifying a suitable holding midfielder to complement Mainoo and Bruno Fernandes.
Casemiro’s decline and potential departure may prompt United to reassess their options in midfield with players like Donny van de Beek and Christian Eriksen likely to depart as well. However, Scott McTominay should stay given his value as a squad player and goal threat.
Amidst decisions on loan midfielders like Sofyan Amrabat and Hannibal, United may seek to reinforce their midfield with new signings, with Joao Gomes of Wolves being linked as a potential target.
