Manchester United's Kobbie Mainoo earns England call-up for Brazil, Belgium friendlies

Posted : 19 March 2024

Manchester United's rising talent, 18-year-old midfielder Kobbie Mainoo, has earned his maiden call-up to the England squad for the upcoming friendly matches against Brazil and Belgium. Initially selected for the Under-21 squad, Mainoo's impressive performances have led to his promotion to Gareth Southgate's senior team. The friendlies against Brazil and Belgium, scheduled at Wembley, serve as crucial preparation for England before Southgate finalizes his squad for Euro 2024.

 

Joining the national team camp at St George's Park, Mainoo stands out as a product of the Manchester United academy, showcasing his prowess at various youth levels for England. His meteoric rise saw him debut for Manchester United against Everton in November, followed by consistent appearances totaling 19 matches. Notably, Mainoo left his mark by scoring his inaugural goal for the club during an FA Cup victory over Newport, followed by a decisive late winner against Wolves in the Premier League just days later.

 

Mainoo's inclusion in the England squad underscores his rapid progression and potential to make an impact at the international level. His versatility and knack for crucial goals add depth to Southgate's selections as England prepares to face formidable opponents in Brazil and Belgium. As Mainoo joins the likes of established stars, his journey from academy prospect to national team contender exemplifies the pathway for emerging talents to shine on the grand stage.
