"Mainoo, widely regarded as one of United's most exciting academy graduates in recent years, has found himself increasingly sidelined this season. Despite his breakthrough campaign last year and subsequent England recognition, the 20-year-old has made just 12 appearances across all competitions, with only one start to his name. That solitary start came in the Carabao Cup defeat to Grimsby, while he has yet to begin a single Premier League match under Amorim."
"When he was introduced in the second half, he was met with loud cheers from the home supporters, a clear indication that many fans believe he deserves a greater role. Shortly after the match, Mainoo's older brother, Jordan Mainoo-Hames, made a bold statement that quickly gained traction online. He attended the game wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the words FREE KOBBIE MAINOO, later sharing an image of the outfit on Instagram."
Kobbie Mainoo has been largely sidelined this season at Manchester United, making 12 appearances across all competitions with only one start, which came in the Carabao Cup defeat to Grimsby. He has not started any Premier League matches under Ruben Amorim. During the 4-4 draw with Bournemouth he made a brief substitute appearance and received loud cheers from the supporters. His older brother Jordan attended the match wearing a t-shirt reading FREE KOBBIE MAINOO and posted the image on Instagram. Sources indicate Mainoo was frustrated in the summer after a request to explore a move away from Old Trafford was rejected.
