Kobbie Mainoo Demands Tenfold Salary at United
Kobbie Mainoo has requested a tenfold salary increase from Manchester United as Bayern Munich and Chelsea monitor his situation closely.
Kobbie Mainoo, Manchester United’s rising midfield star, has reportedly asked for a substantial pay raise to remain at the club amid growing interest from European giants Bayern Munich and Chelsea. The 19-year-old has impressed with his performances, earning a key role in the squad under head coach Ruben Amorim.
Currently earning a modest €1 million annually under his February 2023 contract, Mainoo has requested a new deal worth £200,000 per month, totaling around €11 million per year. This demand represents a tenfold increase and underscores the young player’s confidence in his value after his breakthrough season.
Mainoo’s current contract runs until June 2026, but Manchester United is keen to secure his future before other clubs can intervene. Chelsea and Bayern Munich have reportedly shown interest, with Bayern said to be preparing a lucrative offer to test United’s resolve.
Speaking about the situation, Ruben Amorim highlighted Mainoo’s importance to the team: "Kobbie has shown exceptional maturity and quality. Rewarding his contributions is not just about salary but recognizing his commitment to the club’s future." Amorim’s endorsement further pressures United to meet the player’s demands or risk losing him to a rival.
This situation comes at a critical time for Manchester United, as securing long-term deals for emerging stars like Mainoo is crucial to maintaining their competitive edge in the Premier League and Europe. Fans and analysts alike are eagerly watching how the club navigates this high-stakes negotiation.
