Tottenham, which missed a player who was close to joining, is seeking to recruit a new large player.
British Give Me Sports reported in an exclusive report on the 28th (Korea time) that `Tottenham contacted Kobe Mainu to recruit him.'
Tottenham initially recruited Morgan Gibbs-White in the transfer market this summer. At that time, recruitment was considered a strong candidate. European transfer market expert Fabrazio Romano also admitted that the transfer was close with "HERE WE GO".
However, the transfer was canceled due to Nottingham Forest's stubborn resistance. Nottingham fumed that Tottenham had illegally contacted Gibbs-White without the club's consent, signaling a legal action. In the end, Tottenham failed to complete the transfer, and Gibbs-White re-signed Nottingham.

Tottenham, who failed to recruit Gibbs White, quickly turned his eyes. He set his sights on a big prospect. Give Me Sports said: 'Tottenham targeted Mainu. Tottenham highly appreciate Mainu's versatility and have also held informal inquiries about transfer negotiations. However, Mainu said the issue of signing at Manchester United has not yet been resolved.
Ahead of this summer, Mainu's renewal negotiations with Manchester United drew great attention. The possibility of leaving the team had been raised as negotiations with the club to renew the contract failed to progress. Britain's Guardian says 'Mainu rejects Manchester United's new contract and shows willingness to move abroad. Mainu also said he had long-term negotiations with Manchester United, but could not reach an agreement.

He is a player with no doubt about his 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. If Tottenham can recruit Mainu, it will be a huge addition to its power.
However, the recruitment of Mainu is expected to have many difficulties in persuading Manchester United and paying weekly wages. 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. Tottenham's summer is not an easy journey.
