Kobbie Mainoo is facing major problems in the process of negotiating a contract extension with Man United.

At the same time, European football giants, including Bayern Munich, are lurking and ready to recruit this young midfielder.

Mainoo's contract with United runs until 2027, with an option for a further year, but negotiations over a new deal have stalled. The 19-year-old is demanding a salary of up to £200,000 a week, 10 times his current salary of £20,000, leaving negotiations at a standstill. Mainoo's demands are seen as a fair wage given his performances, and when compared to other fallen stars still earning "huge" wages, his desire becomes even more understandable.

The delay in negotiations opens the door for other clubs. Bayern Munich have long admired Mainoo's talent and are said to be ready to step in if United cannot meet their demands for the young midfielder. In addition to Bayern Munich, other clubs such as Chelsea, PSG, Real Madrid and Juventus are also closely monitoring the situation. Mainoo, who came through United's Carrington academy, has emerged as a top star, playing an important role in both the United and England squads. However, the final decision still rests with United, as Mainoo's current contract still has a long term. With Bayern joining the race, Mainoo's future at United has become more uncertain and complicated than ever.
