Manchester United's plan to renew its contract with a top prospect is on the verge of being really shaken. Real Madrid is starting to show interest.
British sports bible reported on the 15th (Korea time) 'European big clubs made their first move to recruit Kobe Mainu'
Sportsbible said 'Minu recently wants a weekly raise and is negotiating a contract renewal. Europe's largest club is also aware of this situation. Real Madrid are watching closely after scouting Mainu. Real see him as an invaluable prospect and are looking for a long-term deal with Manchester United, even if it's not an immediate and necessary deal.

Manchester United has recently received a lot of attention to renewing its contract with Mainu. Mainu's renewal negotiations with the club have not progressed, raising the possibility of leaving the team. Britain's Guardian also expressed its intention to move abroad after rejecting Manchester United's new contract. Mainu held long-term negotiations with Manchester United, but failed to reach an agreement'
There is no doubt about Mainu's potential. It has grown steadily since it first stepped into Manchester United's first team in 2022. Even at a young age, he has become the main player in Manchester United's midfield, beating his seniors, showing his stable ball guard ability, depression, forward dribbling, and calmness. He also played in the England national team.
However, growth seems to have slowed down a bit this season. He consistently started but remained silent with 0 goals and 0 assists in 18 league games. Excluding attack points, there were many games that were less influential than last season. In addition, there were many cases where Manchester United suffered a setback by giving large contracts to promising players or players who had played in several seasons, so there was no choice but to be concerned about investing a lot of money in Mainu.

The reason why Mainu and Manchester United's negotiations are parallel is because of the amount requested per week. Despite being young, Mainu wants a huge salary increase. Mainu reportedly demanded 180,000 pounds (about 330 million won), which is an amount that top players are also receiving in the English Premier League (EPL). It is compared to 190,000 pounds (about 350 million won) of Son Heung-min, Tottenham's highest weekly wage. Manchester United has no choice but to express its reluctance.
In this situation, Real is paying attention to the renewal negotiations between Manchester United and Mainu, making it more difficult for Manchester United to hold onto Mainu with a small weekly salary. Spain's Defensa Central is also very interested in Mainu, and if he refuses to sign with Manchester United, he will pay attention. Real's chief scout, Huni Calapat, is watching Minu, and the club's leadership also thinks highly of him.

Meanwhile, owner Jim Ratcliffe is said to have no plans to accept the excessive demand for weekly pay even if he decides to sell Mainu. The British media reported 'Manchester United will apply frugality to all players who wish to sign a new contract. With Mainu's contract stalled, owner Ratcliffe is ready to step up hard. 'Manchester United will significantly cut salaries for players who try to sign new contracts, instead introducing a huge bonus scheme based on the results'
