Kobbie Mainoo Transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid

ESPN Sports reports that Real Madrid is closely monitoring the situation of Kobbie Mainoo at Manchester United with a view to a possible market opportunity for 2026, with a move possible as early as January if his situation does not improve.

Manchester United are reportedly willing to include Kobbie Mainoo in a part-exchange deal for Real Madrid's Federico Valverde and are said to have offered £44million plus the midfielder. Spanish outlet Defensa Central claims Manchester United have tabled the offer. According to reports in Spain, Real Madrid are not entertaining any negotiations. SunSport understands that Real Madrid are not entirely ruling out a future deal as they look to replace Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.

According to a report from DefensaCentral, Manchester United have proposed €50m plus Kobbie Mainoo in exchange for Real Madrid's Federico Valverde. The move is described as a non-starter, with Real Madrid having no intention of accepting the package. The report also states that it is debatable whether an offer has actually been made, and it may be a case of the proposal being floated as a possibility by intermediaries.

According to Defensa Central, Manchester United have launched a bid of €50 million (£43.6 million, $58.8 million) for Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde which would also see Kobbie Mainoo move to the Santiago Bernabéu in exchange.

According to E-Noticies, Madrid president Florentino Perez is willing to pay €90million (£78.5m, $106m) for Mainoo. Dean Jones said there is nothing concrete in the links with Madrid right now.

Manchester United will reportedly demand a fee of €90 million to sell Kobbie Mainoo in 2026. Real Madrid have been tipped as possible suitors for Mainoo and are keeping close tabs on him. However, according to Defensa Central, Real Madrid are unable to afford a €90m deal and believe that a fee of €50m is far more reasonable for the midfielder. Real Madrid are reportedly searching for an heir to both Toni Kroos and Luka Modric, and Mainoo has been earmarked as a potential option. Real Madrid are currently unwilling to match Man Utd’s asking price and are instead aiming to negotiate a far cheaper fee as they look to land the Englishman in 2026.

Journalist Ekrem Konur reports that Real Madrid has set its sights on Kobbie Mainoo and does not rule out a move for the midfielder in the upcoming winter transfer market. According to Konur, Real Madrid is very attentive to the player's situation, but everything depends on what happens with Ceballos.

According to a report from Defensa Central, Kobbie Mainoo 'is angry with Manchester United' for refusing to grant his wish to leave Old Trafford on loan in January. The outlet adds that Real Madrid 'want him', and their chief scout Juni Calafat is a big fan of Mainoo, having 'spoken about him on several occasions' internally. Los Blancos will reportedly keep tabs on him with a view to a potential move in January if an opportunity arises. The Spanish news outlet also claimed last week that Madrid president Florentino Perez is 'attentive' to the midfielder's situation.

Real Madrid have opened talks with Manchester United over a deal for Kobbie Mainoo, according to reports in Spain.

According to Defensa Central, Real Madrid have made enquiries about Kobbie Mainoo, who remains on the club's radar for a potential mid-season transfer. The player is reportedly open to joining Real Madrid if a suitable offer is made in the January window. Mainoo had told Manchester United during the summer that he wanted a loan move to continue his development. A move is said to depend on his playing time at United and the future of Dani Ceballos at Real Madrid.

According to Team Talk, Real Madrid are interested in signing Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United in the January transfer window and have already made an enquiry. The player is reportedly eager for the move and would 'immediately leave for Madrid.' However, the deal is said to be dependent on two conditions: one of Real Madrid's current midfielders suffering a serious injury, and the future of Dani Ceballos, who might be sold. Manchester United do not wish to part with Mainoo, valuing him at £70m, and he is under contract until 2027 with an option for an extra year. The report adds that Xabi Alonso is personally keen on the transfer.

Reports claim Real Madrid are 'one step away' from completing the signing of Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United on transfer deadline day. The report states Real Madrid are willing to take Mainoo on loan and the player is eager to join them. However, top sources like Fabrizio Romano, Simon Stone, and Ciro Venerato claim that Manchester United will not allow Mainoo to leave on deadline day, especially after injuries to Cunha and Mount. Mainoo has requested a loan move to gain more playtime, but Manchester United wants to keep him.

Spanish giants Real Madrid have explored loan possibilities for Kobbie Mainoo. Mainoo himself is believed to be leaning towards a move abroad should he depart.

Team Talk reports on Real Madrid's interest in a loan bid for Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United. Real Madrid is considering a loan bid for Kobbie Mainoo, who is currently marginalized at Manchester United under Ruben Amorim. Mainoo is open to leaving if a suitable offer is received, and a season-long loan move is of interest to Real Madrid. Mainoo favors a move abroad and joining Real Madrid would allow him to play alongside fellow England teammates and compete in the Champions League. However, Manchester United is unlikely to approve the loan as they are not actively looking to sell him.

Team Talk reports on Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso's interest in signing Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United. Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso is interested in signing Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United. The interest is part of Alonso's plan to find a long-term replacement for Toni Kroos. Despite the interest, Manchester United is unlikely to sell Mainoo this summer, as they want him to grow and progress under manager Ruben Amorim. Mainoo was valued at £70 million by Manchester United in March, and Tottenham Hotspur has also made an enquiry about him.

Real Madrid view Mainoo as a key target to bolster their midfield for the upcoming season. Man United have set an asking price of €50m (£41.7m) for the young midfielder. Mainoo has not signed a new contract at Old Trafford, with his current deal expiring in 2027. Manchester United are looking to sell Mainoo to raise funds for their summer transfer business.

Manchester United have reportedly set an asking price of £42 million for midfielder Kobbie Mainoo ahead of the summer transfer window. Real Madrid is listed as a potential suitor for Mainoo. Manchester United is hopeful of getting the 19-year-old to sign a new contract, but he is linked with an exit.

Team Talk reports on the potential transfer of Kobbie Mainoo amid ongoing negotiations for a new deal. Kobbie Mainoo is in negotiations over a new deal, but his possible sale has looked more likely than ever. He could be forced out this summer, with Chelsea being a potential destination. Real Madrid are also admirers of the young midfielder.

Kobbie Mainoo is reportedly attracting serious interest from Real Madrid ahead of the summer transfer window. Mainoo is likely to reject contract offers at Manchester United and could be on the market for around £70m. Real Madrid sees Mainoo as a potential upgrade for their midfield and is keeping a close eye on the situation.

Team Talk has reported that Real Madrid is keen on acquiring Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United. The Spanish club is said to be very interested in Mainoo, whom they consider one of the standout players in the Premier League. Mainoo's decision not to renew his contract with Manchester United has drawn the attention of Real Madrid. It is noted that Madrid's chief scout, Juni Calafat, along with other members of the club's hierarchy, hold Mainoo in high regard. Although Real Madrid acknowledges that signing Mainoo during the summer transfer window may be challenging, they intend to continue monitoring his situation closely.

Kobbie Mainoo is expected to reject Manchester United's contract offer. Mainoo is looking for a challenge outside of England. Man Utd are demanding an eye-watering €83 million for Mainoo, which casts doubt on their ability to sell him abroad. Real Madrid is one of the few clubs that could afford such a deal.

Real Madrid is considering Kobbie Mainoo, emerging talent born in 2005 from Manchester United, to replace Luka Modric or Toni Kroos who could leave Bernabeu in the summer. Mainoo (18) has scored 23 appearances and three goals in the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League under the direction of Erik ten Hag this season.
