Mainoo is the perfect piece for Real

With the summer transfer window about to close, Real Madrid have surprised everyone by considering signing Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United.

Kobbie Mainoo has potential and fits Xabi Alonso's philosophy.

According to Marca , coach Xabi Alonso wants to add a new midfielder, with Dani Ceballos likely to leave to join Marseille. Although "Los Blancos" were interested in Palace's Adam Wharton, Kobbie Mainoo - another English football talent - has become the name that Real Madrid is more interested in.

Bernd Schuster, former Real Madrid coach, believes Mainoo would be an ideal addition to the “Los Blancos” midfield, alongside the names they already have such as Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni.

"Mainoo brings versatility - able to play as a defensive midfielder or a central midfielder - and a calm, possession-based style of play that fits Xabi Alonso's philosophy," Schuster said.

The presence of Mainoo and Jude Bellingham could give Real Madrid a future England central midfield pairing. Real Madrid are building a youthful and sustainable squad under Alonso.

According to CIES, the average age of Real's squad is currently 24, and Mainoo (20 years old) would be the perfect piece to continue the trend of rejuvenating the squad.

At Old Trafford, Mainoo is facing a deadlock in contract negotiations, with his £180,000-a-week salary demands rejected by the Manchester United board. Combined with Mainoo's fall from grace under Amorim, this is a golden opportunity for Real Madrid to recruit a promising young talent of English football.
