Manchester United are planning to meet with Kobbie Mainoo after the transfer window closes to negotiate a new contract that acknowledges his impressive performances this season, per Sky Sports.
The club recognizes the English-Ghanaian’s significance to its future and views this contract adjustment as a priority.
Despite the urgency, United do not need to hasten the discussions since the 19-year-old midfielder already has a long-term contract in place.
Mainoo’s representatives remain calm, knowing his existing deal runs until 2027, with an option for an additional year.
This contract includes performance-related pay increases, which reflect his development and contributions on the pitch.
The young star appreciates the club’s commitment to his growth as a player and believes they are on a positive trajectory under the new football leadership team.
Currently, Manchester United aims to build their midfield around Mainoo, prioritizing his role in the squad.
The club actively searches for a complementary player, with Manuel Ugarte emerging as the top target to enhance the midfield dynamic alongside Mainoo.
