Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim may be instrumental in keeping academy stars Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho at Old Trafford next season.
Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo have been strongly linked with a move away from the club in the past few months and rumors have stated that one of the players or both could depart in the summer.
Manchester United wants to make a massive clear-out in the summer so the club can sign players who fit into the manager’s style of play. The club are still assessing the players ahead of the summer.
However, the club can generate funds by selling academy players and it will help the club in terms of PSR (Profitability and Sustainability Rules) as selling academy players is seen as pure profit for the book.
The expectation now is that Manchester United would be open to selling Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo in the summer for the right price with the club already struggling to reach an agreement over a new deal with Mainoo.
Will Mainoo and Garnacho leave?
There’s a huge possibility that Kobbie Mainoo and Garnacho stay at Manchester United next season with Ruben Amorim speaking positively of Garnacho lately and reports are suggesting that Mainoo’s camp and Manchester United will have a meeting about his contract in the coming days.
Despite that Kobbie Mainoo has been injured and couldn’t play much under Ruben Amorim yet, the manager has been clear about his intention to keep Garnacho at the club. The fans agreed with him about his comment earlier this year.
“It’s true [that clubs can generate money by selling academy players], but I want players like Kobbie [Mainoo] and Garnacho, Ruben Amorim said.
Marcus Rashford’s sale could also play a part
Marcus Rashford signed for Aston Villa during the winter transfer window on a loan deal with an option to make the deal permanent in the summer. Rashford came through the academy and his sale could help keep Mainoo and Garnacho.
The option for Aston Villa to sign Rashford on a permanent deal worth over 45 million pounds. Christain Eriksen and Jonny Evans who are expected to leave will also help free up wages.
