Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keeping a close eye on Kobbie Mainoo’s situation at Manchester United ahead of a possible move.<\/p>\n

Tottenham Hotspur<\/strong><\/a> are reportedly keeping a close eye on Kobbie Mainoo<\/strong><\/a>‘s situation at Manchester United<\/strong><\/a>, with the North London club preparing a move for the central midfielder.<\/p>\n

Mainoo had a frustrating 2024-25 campaign at Old Trafford, with the England international failing to nail down a spot in Ruben Amorim<\/strong><\/a>‘s first XI.<\/p>\n

The 20-year-old was used as a central midfielder, a number 10 and even a false nine, but he found it difficult to excel in any position, and there has been speculation surrounding his future of late.<\/p>\n

Mainoo is regarded as one of the most talented youngsters in English football, but he is yet to sign a new deal at Old Trafford, with his current contract due to expire in June 2027.<\/p>\n

Talk of a move away from Man United this summer has quietened in recent weeks, but according to TBR Football<\/a>, Tottenham are keeping a close eye on his situation at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

\"Manchester<\/p>\n

Tottenham ‘monitoring Mainoo’ ahead of possible move<\/p>\n

The report claims that Tottenham ‘appreciate’ Mainoo and would be ready to move for him this summer if it became clear that he was interested in a switch to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.<\/p>\n

Mainoo has seven goals and two assists in 72 appearances for Man United, including two goals and one assist in 37 appearances for the Red Devils during the 2024-25 campaign.<\/p>\n

The midfielder featured in Man United’s pre-season opener against Leeds United on Saturday, and he is currently with the Red Devils squad in the United States on their pre-season tour.<\/p>\n

As it stands, it seems unlikely that Mainoo will leave Man United this summer, even if a new midfielder arrives, as he is said to be in the plans of head coach Amorim despite his issues last term.<\/p>\n

\"Manchester<\/p>\n

Will Man United sign a new midfielder this summer?<\/p>\n

Man United did not renew Christian Eriksen’s contract, so they are technically a player down in the middle, although Sekou Kone is an outstanding youngster and a player who is capable of playing an important role in 2025-26.<\/p>\n

Toby Collyer, Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte and Bruno Fernandes are also options in that area alongside Mainoo, and it will be fascinating to see how the team lines up at the start of the new season.<\/p>\n

A central midfielder may be signed later in the transfer window, but there should still be space for Mainoo, who may be used more as a number 10 by Amorim during the new campaign.<\/p>\n
