‘Breaking point’ – Ruben Amorim forcing Man United star to consider permanent transfer away

Manchester United central midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is now reportedly increasingly open to leaving the club permanently after falling out of favour with Ruben Amorim.

The England international is yet to start a single Premier League game this season, leading to plenty of recent speculation about a possible departure on loan.

Mainoo has been linked with Chelsea, Napoli and other big clubs, and it may even be that he now leaves in a permanent transfer.

That’s according to the Daily Mail, who report that Mainoo is now at ‘breaking point’ as he sees no future for himself under Amorim.

Even though it would have been unthinkable when Mainoo first made his breakthrough in the United senior side, it now really seems like he could be about to move on from his boyhood club.

The 20-year-old seems unable to convince Amorim that he deserves a starting spot, and it seems there won’t be any shortage of suitors for him.

Chelsea have been linked with Mainoo by the Telegraph in recent times, and if big clubs like that are willing to rescue the player and give him the playing time he wants, then it’s surely a no-brainer for him to get out of Old Trafford to revive his career.

Mainoo is still young and inexperienced, and there could be an argument that he shouldn’t just look to leave the club at the first sign of trouble.

MUFC legend Roy Keane suggested on this week’s episode of the Overlap that Mainoo shouldn’t necessarily expect to be starting every game at this stage of his career.

United are a big club and players should perhaps be ready to embrace challenges like this, according to Keane.

Is Mainoo expecting too much, or has he been harshly treated by United and Amorim? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
