Another 'gem' wants to leave, MU immediately issues a statement

Kobbie Mainoo is believed to have expressed his wish to leave MU on loan before the summer transfer deadline, seeking more playing opportunities. However, the Old Trafford management decisively turned down this request.

According to The Athletic, the 20-year-old midfielder informed MU on Thursday about his desire to temporarily exit the club. Mainoo stated that he does not want to break his long-term ties with the Red Devils but is looking for a setting where he can play more regularly to develop his career.
