Kobbie Mainoo has less than two years left on his current contract with Manchester United, and he is in talks about an extension. Amid this, Chelsea has shown interest in the 19-year-old midfielder.
Details. GiveMeSport reports that the "Blues" are closely monitoring the midfielder and may make a move this summer, especially if the "Red Devils" are forced to sell him due to financial issues.
Mainoo himself is reportedly willing to move to Chelsea, but only if he is offered a higher salary than Cole Palmer. Kobbie is asking for £180,000 to extend his contract with Man United and is not ready to accept less for Chelsea.
This would mean leapfrogging Palmer, who currently earns £130,000 a week at Stamford Bridge.
Reminder. Incidentally, today, 17-year-old Mheuka became the youngest player in Chelsea's history to start in a European competition match.
