According to the Daily Mail, discussions over a new contract for the England midfielder continue without resolution. Mainoo, who was frozen out under former boss Ruben Amorim, has been restored to the starting lineup by new head coach Michael Carrick, improving his negotiating position.
However, there are still lingering issues between the 20-year-old's representatives and club officials. Mainoo earns significantly less than his teammates, and after agreeing to a compromise on his salary, he didn't receive a response from United until Amorim was fired in January.
