Ruben Amorim has told Kobbie Mainoo that he is the ‘future of Manchester United’ and won’t be allowed to leave on loan in the January transfer window if the club cannot sign a replacement.
Mainoo is desperate to move away from Old Trafford next month after it emerged that the 20-year-old’s relationship with his boyhood club is at breaking point.
But United blocked his attempts to join Napoli on loan in the summer because they couldn’t sign a player to take his place, and Amorim warned that the situation is no different now.
