Journalist shares game-changing positive news from Amorim's first Man Utd training session - report

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim took charge of his first training session at Carrington on Monday.

Man United have received a major boost with Kobbie Mainoo returning to training, as confirmed by journalist Steven Railston.

Mainoo has not played since 6th October after suffering a muscle injury. He is now ‘closing in on a return to action.’

United fans are eagerly awaiting his comeback, as his presence could be a game-changer.

Amorim will make his managerial debut with United against Ipswich Town in the Premier League on 24th November.

However, it is still uncertain if Mainoo will be fit enough to feature in the match against the newly-promoted side.

The midfielder has been a breath of fresh air in the struggling midfield of the Red Devils.

His dynamic play and relentless drive could be the spark that the team needs.

He is set to play a vital role in Amorim’s 3-4-2-1 system.

The Portuguese head coach is known for fielding young players who can cover ground with great intensity.

He could partner with Manuel Ugarte who rose to the limelight under Amorim at Sporting CP.

We believe the duo will form a robust midfield union that could stabilize the sinking ship of the Red Devils.

The 19-year-old played 35 times in the 2023/24 campaign. Even though starting at the base of midfield, he chipped in with key goals against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester City.

Mainoo’s future at United looks promising and INEOS view him as a perfect fit for their long-term project.
