Inter Milan are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo during the summer transfer window.
The 19-year-old has been struggling to agree on a new contract with the Red Devils, with his current deal set to expire in June 2027.
Mainoo’s Contract Situation
Mainoo is one of the lowest earners in Manchester United’s first-team squad, earning approximately £20,000 a week.
He is reportedly seeking a significant pay rise, with reports suggesting he wants around £180,000 a week to commit to a new deal.
Manchester United’s Valuation
Manchester United value Mainoo at around £70m, making him a prized asset for the club.

While Chelsea were linked with a move for the midfielder in January, it’s unlikely that Manchester United would let him join a Premier League rival.
Inter Milan’s Interest
According to Calciomercato, Inter Milan are keeping a close eye on Mainoo’s situation and view him as the ideal player to boost their midfield.
The Serie A side could approach Manchester United in the coming weeks to discuss a potential move.
Other Interested Clubs
While Inter Milan are leading the chase for Mainoo’s signature, other top European clubs are also reportedly interested.
Real Madrid and Barcelona are said to be admirers of the teenager, and it’s not impossible that he could make a move to a major La Liga team during the summer transfer window.
Mainoo’s Future at Manchester United
Despite his struggles to agree on a new contract, Mainoo remains a key player for Manchester United.
He has made 60 appearances for the club, scoring six goals and registering two assists.
With his future uncertain, Manchester United fans will be keeping a close eye on developments surrounding the talented midfielder.
