Kobbie Mainoo, a young midfielder from Manchester United, has experienced a rapid rise in his career. From being on the fringes of the senior squad, he has now made his 24th senior appearance for England against Brazil at Wembley. This article explores his journey and the potential for more success in the future.
Just over a year ago, Kobbie Mainoo stood on the Wembley pitch in his Manchester United suit trying to take it all in. He had made just three first-team appearances at this point and hadn't made the squad for the Carabao Cup final triumph against Newcastle, but in amongst the celebrations after the game Erik ten Hag sought him out for a chat.
This was a then 17-year-old midfielder only on the very fringes of the senior squad, but as Ten Hag revelled in winning a first trophy as United manager, he went over to the Stockport-born academy graduate and shared a few words. Mainoo's 24th senior appearance was for England against Brazil and it was the first time he had played at Wembley. It has been a meteoric rise this season
