MU is very confident that the new £ 70 million offer for Bryan Mbeumo will be accepted by Brentford in this summer transfer window. However, there are 2 stars of the Red Devils who are feeling insecure if the deal is successful.
Mainoo and Diallo began to worry
If everything happens as planned in the next few days, Bryan Mbeumo will become Man United's player. The Red Devils sent the third proposal to the Cameroon striker on Thursday afternoon and according to Men Sport, the team believed that this was an attractive enough price to persuade Brentford to agree to release.
If the deal is approved, Man United will surely be relieved after a long time of pursuing. However, when the “fever” subsided, the question marks will begin to appear around the existing players in their squad.
With the appearance of two rookies with the direction of playing at No. 10, expected to be both Mbeumo and Matheus Cuha will play right in the opening match of the Premier League against Arsenal. The duo has the potential to create an extremely formidable attack.
At that time, the third place in the midfield will almost certainly belong to Bruno Fernandes. Coach Ruben Amorim is a person who admires the captain of Man United, and the most possible way to keep Bruno in the starting lineup while ensuring the foothold for two rookies is to pull the lower stone in the middle.
Thus, the remaining kick in the midfield will be for a defensive player, maybe Casemiro or Manuel Ugarte. And this is the time when the question is: Kobbie Mainoo and Amad Diallo will be in this new squad?
Where is the solution?
The biggest concern now is probably with Mainoo. Although it was tested as “virtual number 9”, it was an idea not to be used by Amorim. The role that Mainoo best show is the position that Bruno Fernandes is in charge, where he has impressed under Erik Ten Hag.
However, under Amorim, the opportunity to play the young talent of the British has been significantly narrowed. With Man United no longer playing in Europe this season, the number of matches will be less, which means the opportunity to play is even more fragile.
If Mainoo is only considered a project plan, not excluding the possibility that he will consider leaving to find an environment that can help him shine.
It should be remembered that the 20 -year -old has proven the ability to play in the Premier League, and it is unbelievable if he accepts the long -term dual role. As an excellent product of Carrington training and born in Stockport, Mainoo should have been the future of the team, rather than a “backup” plan.
With Amad Diallo, the situation is somewhat less urgent, but also needs to be seriously considered. Like Mainoo, Amad's favorite position is number 10, but now it has been occupied by Cunha and the upcoming MBeumo.
Unlike Mainoo, Amad cannot play deep as a central midfielder. An alternative is for him to play in the role of Wing-back. But this area is now too cramped with the presence of Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui.
However, the Ivory Coast player can completely become a more effective attack plan in the wing corridor if he is ready to improve the defense.
Having too many quality attackers is sometimes a pleasant “hard” for Amorim. However, the Portuguese military leader also faced a fact that it was not easy: he owned too many names that were familiar with being kicked every week.
None of them want to sit on the bench, and that's when the conversations are frank, even awkward, will have to take place in the dressing room.
