Mainu is the future and present of Manchester United. Manu, from Manchester United Youth, made his first-team debut through the League Cup against Charlton in January 2023 when he was 17. Mainu got the opportunity by performing better than expected and signed a first-team contract until 2027.
He hit the pot in the 2023-2024 season. He made his debut on the adult stage and scored his debut on the English Premier League, showing his best performance at Manchester United. It has emerged as a main player and established itself as a supernova representing England beyond Manchester United. It was evaluated that his outstanding keeping ability and ability to solve the game exceeded the level of the same age group.
In March 2024, he was also named in England's national team. He also participated in Euro 2024, showing an easy performance. He sat on the bench in the beginning, but later played as a main player and led the team to second place.

The question is ransom. Currently, Mainu is one of the lowest paid first-team stars. According to the Daily Mail on the 5th (Korea time), Mainu's agent wants 180,000 pounds per week and 353 million won in our money. I also want a bonus here. As a representative player for England, he insists on receiving a similar weekly salary as other players.
It is a burden for Manchester United, which is currently trying to reduce its size. United are struggling financially. Marcus Rashford and Antony have been sent on loan, and even the club's staff have been replaced in large numbers. Manchester United is in a position to catch Mainu, but if Coach Hoobeng Amorim wants to make a new edition, he can sell Mainu in a surprise move. The FFP rule is also a variable.
Chelsea want Mainu at the moment. Manchester United intend to receive more than £80m if they sell Mainu.
