""Kobbie Mainoo will have the opportunity he has all the time. He played in different positions," Amorim said. "He can do that [defensive midfield] position, he can play if we play with three, he can play like we played in the last game, the position of Mason Mount in this game. So, he's going to be the future of Manchester United, that is my feeling. He just needs to wait for his chance and everything could change in football in two days.""
""If we are not getting someone, it is hard to leave," Amorim added. "Even with a full squad, we are short [in terms of players] for something that can happen here so it's going to be hard for someone to leave the club if we don't get a substitution.""
Kobbie Mainoo has made only 12 appearances across all competitions this season and logged 212 Premier League minutes, with four unused substitute appearances. A calf injury will sideline him after missing the Aston Villa match. He started 23 of 38 matches last season but has fallen out of regular selection amid a squad depleted by injuries and Africa Cup of Nations absences. A January exit would depend on the club recruiting an adequate replacement. Mainoo remains versatile across midfield roles and is considered a long-term prospect who must wait for further chances.
