Napoli Want to Borrow Kobbie Mainoo From Manchester United |
According to Gazetta , the Italian club is willing to pay Mainoo's entire current salary, with a buyout clause of more than £50 million to make the deal permanent in the summer of 2026. In addition, to convince Manchester United to accept, Napoli is also willing to let the English club receive a commission on Mainoo's future transfers.
Napoli showed strong interest in Mainoo from the end of the summer transfer window in 2025, when they tried to sign him on loan but were rejected by Manchester United. At that time, Mainoo asked to leave, but coach Ruben Amorim convinced him to stay.
However, things have not improved since the start of the season: Mainoo has only played 9 games this season, with a total of 268 minutes, mostly from the bench, and started just 1 match in the EFL Cup against Grimsby. Mainoo was even dropped from Thomas Tuchel’s England squad due to a lack of playing time, affecting his chances of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.
Mainoo’s frustration is growing, and he is pushing for a loan deal until the end of the season to regain his form and return to the national team. Napoli see this as a golden opportunity, especially after Kevin De Bruyne’s serious hamstring injury (expected to be out for four months).
Mainoo's market value is estimated at around £45m, but Napoli are willing to pay more if United allow them to loan the player first and then buy him outright.
In addition to Napoli, Aston Villa, Newcastle, Real Madrid, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, Atletico Madrid and Roma are also monitoring the situation.
