Chelsea step up pursuit of Kobbie Mainoo
Chelsea are preparing to step up their chase for Manchester United’s midfield sensation, Kobbie Mainoo, as concerns over Romeo Lavia’s long-term fitness continue to mount. With Mainoo’s contract talks at Old Trafford stalling, the Blues are sensing an opportunity to pounce.
Mainoo’s Contract Standoff at United
Despite emerging as one of United’s most promising talents, Mainoo remains among the lowest earners at the club, pocketing just £20,000 per week. His representatives are pushing for a new deal worth around £180,000 per week, but with Financial Fair Play (FFP) concerns looming, United may struggle to meet those demands.
