"According to Italian outlet Il Mattino, Serie A champions Napoli have made Mainoo their top midfield target for January, with Antonio Conte personally pushing for a loan deal to strengthen his squad during the second half of the season. Conte believes the 20-year-old Englishman's energy, control, and vision could make him a key component of Napoli's system as they aim to defend their league title."
"However, Amorim has no plans to sanction his departure, even temporarily. The Portuguese coach views Mainoo as a player who could still play a vital role in United's campaign, particularly with several key stars set to leave for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in January. Players such as Amad Diallo and Bryan Mbeumo will be absent during that period, making squad depth crucial. Once considered one of the brightest prospects in United's academy, Mainoo's progress has stalled since Amorim's arrival."
