Additional midfield option Mainoo has been named in England's World Cup squad and is expected to provide manager Thomas Tuchel with a technically assured and composed midfield option capable of stepping in a...

Impact Mainoo ended the season having made 28 Premier League appearances for Manchester United, contributing one goal and two assists across 1,654 minutes in a campaign that saw him sign a new long-term contract extension to 2031, further underlining the club's belief in his development trajectory after the departure of coach Ruben Amorim who limited his playing time. The young midfielder brings dribbling ability, composure under pressure and the intelligence to operate in tight spaces that makes him a natural fit in any possession-based midfield system, and his previous tournament experience at Euro 2024 gives him a familiarity with the big-occasion environment. Mainoo heads into the World Cup as one of the most technically gifted young midfielders in the squad and a player who could play a crucial role if England reach the later stages of the competition.

It's official! Man Utd announce mega new contract for Kobbie Mainoo as England midfielder reveals 'trophies' aim

Signs contract extension until 2031 Mainoo signed a new contract extending his stay at Manchester United until June 2031, the club announced.

Impact Mainoo has been associated with the club since the age of six and has already made 98 appearances, scoring the decisive goal in the 2024 FA Cup final against Manchester City and representing England in the Euro 2024 final. Director of Football Jason Wilcox described Mainoo as one of the most naturally gifted young footballers in the world, praising his technical ability, professionalism and humble personality as the qualities that make him a perfect role model within the squad. Mainoo himself expressed his determination to help the club fight for major trophies in the years ahead, citing the momentum he feels building inside the club as a key motivation behind his commitment to stay. The extension ties down one of United's most exciting homegrown talents at a time when the club is rebuilding under coach Michael Carrick. This season, Mainoo contributed two assist and 21 chances created in 25 appearances across all competitions.

Man Utd player ratings vs Chelsea: Bruno Fernandes works his magic to chase down Premier League assists record as Diogo Dalot locks up Alejandro Garnacho

Starting in midfield Mainoo (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Chelsea.

Impact Mainoo passed the testing ahead of the contest that had been set to determine his availability, with the positive trend that had emerged following his absence last match proving enough for the coaching staff to hand him a starting role. The midfielder has been a fixture in the lineup ever since Michael Carrick took over as manager, and his return to full fitness slots him straight back into his natural role at the heart of the team.

Impact Mainoo missed the last match with an undisclosed injury but is trending in the right direction for Saturday, as the midfielder is now set to be a late call. That said, he will likely face some testing ahead of the contest, with that deciding if he will be an option or not. He has been a starter ever since Carrick took the role as manager, looking to return to that role once he is fit enough for 90 minutes.

Could return Saturday Mainoo (undisclosed) is aiming to be in contention for Saturday's match against Chelsea after being involved in training Thursday, according to SullyTalks.

Impact Mainoo missed one game while recovering from a slight injury, but he might bounce back into a starting spot if he's fully healthy, challenging Manuel Ugarte for a central midfield role alongside Casemiro. The 20-year-old has seen consistent playing time when available, averaging 49.1 accurate passes and 1.9 tackles per game and adding two assists over his last 11 starts.

"It seems small but big enough" - Michael Carrick reveals why Kobbie Mainoo is not involved in Manchester United vs Leeds Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has revealed why Kobbie Mainoo is absent from the squad for the clash against Leeds United.

APRIL 13 • SPORTSKEEDA.COM

Out with small injury Mainoo is out for Monday's match against Leeds United due to a "small issue in training," according to his club.

Impact Mainoo is a new addition to the injury list as United prepares to face Leeds, as the midfielder went down with a minor injury in training. This does force a change for the club, as they welcome Manuel Ugarte into the starting XI. They take the field again Saturday against Chelsea, giving Mainoo around five days to recover, leaving him with a chance to make the outing if the injury is truly "small."
