Kobbie Mainoo has officially committed his long-term future to Manchester United by signing a contract extension that runs until June 2031.
The deal, announced on April 30, 2026, marks a major milestone for the 21-year-old midfielder, who has successfully navigated a challenging period at the club.
This renewal secures one of United’s brightest academy talents during a pivotal transition phase for the squad.
The new agreement comes with a significant salary increase, reflecting Mainoo’s status as a core starter in the first team.
His weekly wages have jumped from roughly £25,000 to a reported £135,000–£150,000 per week, plus performance-related bonuses. Notably, the club has opted not to include a release clause in the contract, ensuring they maintain full control over his future as he continues his development at Old Trafford.
Mainoo’s resurgence under interim manager Michael Carrick played a crucial role in the timing of this extension.
After a difficult spell where he nearly left on loan, Mainoo has started almost every game since January, reclaiming his place as a midfield mainstay.
With his club future settled, he is now expected to be a vital part of Thomas Tuchel’s England squad heading into the 2026 World Cup.
