As a result, the club may be forced to sell some of their highly rated young players to comply with financial regulations. Reports suggest that Chelsea are re-examining their interest in Mainoo, who was previously considered in January but ultimately not signed.

Manchester United are still hoping to keep Mainoo, but they may need to sell another key player to make it happen. The sale of their captain, Bruno Fernandes, could provide the funds needed to keep Mainoo, who has seen limited playing time despite the team's need for quality in midfield.

Mainoo, an England international, has been with Manchester United's academy since a young age and has shown great promise. However, his opportunities have been limited under the team's current management.
