Juventus are showing interest in signing Kobbie Mainoo, who may be leaving Manchester United

Juventus are closely monitoring Kobbie Mainoo’s situation at Manchester United as the 20-year-old midfielder faces uncertainty over his future. According to The Guardian, stalled contract talks and reduced playing time under new coach Ruben Amorim could push the youngster toward an exit.

Juventus renews long-standing interest

The Italian giants have been tracking Mainoo since his early breakthrough, with scouts drawing comparisons to Paul Pogba for his blend of physicality, technique, and vision. With Juventus looking to strengthen their midfield after securing a Champions League return, Mainoo has emerged as a realistic target.

Lack of minutes sparks doubts

Despite being considered one of United’s brightest prospects, Mainoo has struggled for consistent starts this season. Frustration over limited opportunities, coupled with slow-moving contract renewal talks, has made him more open to evaluating offers.

His current deal runs until 2027, but United are aware that his rising value could attract multiple suitors from the Premier League and abroad.

United could cash in

Manchester United are not ruling out a sale, especially as the club faces pressure to manage finances and rebuild under Amorim. Alongside Alejandro Garnacho, Mainoo is seen as a potential market asset who could bring in significant funds if sold.

Juventus weigh next steps

While Juventus remain cautious, they see Mainoo as an investment for both the present and future. Any move, however, would likely involve competition from other European clubs keen on securing one of England’s most promising young midfielders.
