According to David Ornstein, an authoritative transfer expert of "Sports Network", 20-year-old Manchester United youth training player Kobe Meno has told the club that he hopes to leave the team on loan before the end of the summer window in order to play as the main player of the first team. This season, he is not valued under Amorin and has been on the bench for 90 minutes in both Premier League games.

Meno informed United at a meeting with senior executives on Thursday that although he had no intention of completely severing ties with the club he had played for since childhood, he felt that there would be few opportunities to stay and was ready to leave Old Trafford for a temporary basis for a stable playing time, especially before next summer's World Cup.

But Manchester United made it clear to Meno that they would not approve the rental and would transfer permanently if they wanted to leave. But the management emphasized that it attaches importance to the players trained by its own youth training and hopes that Meno will stay and work hard for his position.

More than a year ago, Manchester United fans talked about the scene of Garnacho, Hoylund and Kobe Meno sitting on billboards to celebrate, believing that this is the troika leading the team's revival. However, this summer, two of them have basically decided to leave, and the only last flame - Meno, also became the protagonist of the transfer rumor at the last moment of the summer window.

After the Premier League match at Craven Farm last Sunday, the midfielder who sat depressed behind coach Ruben Amorin could finally walk into the stadium, and he was expressionless and squatted on the ground. This is not just because the team lost 0-1, but also because he didn't get a second playing time in two consecutive league games. Then, when he walked on the team bus that was returning from Manchester United, he was still dejected.

No need to read any British media reports, you will know that 20-year-old Meno is disappointed with the status quo. What made him feel even more misfortune was that in his first game in the middle of the week, Manchester United was eliminated by English League Two team Grimsby. Before the FA Cup begins in January next year, the Red Devils have only one Premier League game left, and Meno's appearance has become even more difficult.

But this is not a particularly new situation. In fact, after Meno returned from injury in December last year, his position and opportunity in Amorin's 343 formation became a question, and he has been discussed many times, and no solution was found.

So, the claim that Meno may leave the team will spread wildly before the transfer window is closed next Monday. "Competition Network" disclosed that he has indeed discussed it with Manchester United teammates in private. Although playing for the Red Devils was his childhood dream, reality forced him to consider leaving. At the same time, Manchester United no longer regards it as a non-sale product. If it weren't for the concern that selling Garnacho and Meno at the same time might lead to dissatisfaction among fans, they would have wanted to sell him long ago.

It is said that the club had the idea of ​​selling Meno at a suitable price as early as January. In response, Manchester United's official statement was that it did not actively sell Meno, and the coaching staff was very satisfied with him. In fact, like most of Manchester United's current players, Meno has fatal flaws. People hope he stays at Manchester United and delivers on his talent, but it is not the end of the world if he leaves at the end.

What Manchester United lacks in the midfield now is a new player who can stabilize defense and has certain passing ability, such as Carlos Baleba, who cannot be introduced because Brighton's price of 120 million pounds. If Meno is sold, the club will have a better chance of getting funds to buy target players such as Baleba and Adam Walton.

As for Meno, he is regarded by Amorin as a contender for captain Bruno Fernandez. Whether such players are not much different. The 30-year-old B Fei played 55 of Manchester United's 60 games last season, and the team's games this season have been less than 50 games at most.

According to competitive network, Bayern Munich explored the possibility of a transfer from Meno, but did not formally express interest. Leverkusen, whom Tenghager coached, is very interested, but can't afford Meno. Unlike Garnacho, Meno prefers to play in Europe rather than stay in the Premier League.

There are rumors among the clubs such as Tottenham, Newcastle United and Brighton in England. Among them, the story of Baleba for Meno is completely unreliable, and the "Seagull Legion" cannot afford the price of introducing Manchester United geniuses.

In January this year, when Chelsea asked for Meno, Manchester United asked for £70 million. Now, Sir Jim Ratcliff and Ineos are said to be willing to accept a £45 million price, which can be even lower if bargained.

But in addition to the transfer fee, Meno has two major requirements, which are obstacles that have led to his failure to renew his contract with Manchester United so far. First of all, England's midfielder requires playing the main player, and in addition, he wants a maximum salary. These requirements will also be a stumbling block in his transfer.

Meno's current contract with Manchester United is a four-year contract signed in February 2023. He only played twice at the time and received a weekly salary of £20,000. More than a year later, Meno became the main midfielder in Tenhager's 4231 lineup, playing 32 games and scoring 5 goals, including Manchester City's winning goal 2-1 in the FA Cup final. He then was selected for England, playing four games for Southgate's side in the European Cup, including a 1-2 loss to Spain.

So, his agent asked him for a significant salary increase, and his salary reached 10 times that of now! The requirement for a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds was not fabricated by British media. At that time, he beat Casemiro in the midfield, whose weekly salary was £350,000. Manchester United's bench also sat on the bench, Mason Mount and Sancho, with a weekly salary of £250,000, Anthony, and others. Therefore, Meno's family believes that he is more qualified to enjoy high-paying treatment, but the club refused, believing that it is worthy of maintaining good performance for at least one or two years.

At present, the contract renewal is nowhere to be achieved. Manchester United refuses to raise the salary, and with Amorin's use of Meno, the players do not plan to renew it. At first his refusal to renew his contract was just a bargaining method, but now the transfer has become a real possibility. If it weren't for this summer, rumors would continue next year, especially if Amorin continues to coach..

In Amorin's 343 formation, it is difficult for Meno to find a suitable position. This also reflects the common problem of Manchester United's generation of elite youth training players. Most of them are not enterprising and always want to gain a foothold based on their own talents. Rashford, Mason Greenwood, and Garner Chomo are all the same, no matter how long they debut, their playing style remains the same, and they are not even as hard as they were when they were just starting out.

In Manchester United's famous 92 class, Beckham was originally in the midfield and later changed to the right. Nicky Bart was originally a striker wearing the No. 10, and later transformed into a midfielder. They did not complain, but the current Red Devil Youth Training Prince is in a state of trouble if he doesn't hit the position he likes and is unhappy to sacrifice for the team. In

Amorin's 343 formation, midfielders need to run hard to achieve offense and defense balance. But it's hard to see Meno do it, he always runs slowly, like Pogba, not Kante. His characteristic is calmness, but this will bring negative results in Amorin's system. If the midfielder runs like Meno, the opponent can easily break through the middle to attack Manchester United's defense line.

Starting last season, Amorin allowed Meno to play the No. 10 position more, but his performance is average. After spending 200 million pounds to sign Seshko, Mbemo and Cunia, the new Red Devils youth training star has little space left on the front line.

Running and mobility are the links that Amorin is not satisfied with Meno. He clearly reminded the player this summer that he needs to speed up his pace and speed up his pace. After injury last season, Meno's muscles increased, but his running and confrontation did not improve.

There is a view that Manchester United cannot put too much pressure on young people now, and Scholes, Beckham and others are only 21 or 2 years old. But young people today lack patience. They don’t like to change themselves and hope that the team and coaches will build the team around them.

People around Meno complain that Amorin is not good at communication. The 40-year-old Portuguese young coach, like his teacher Mourinho, likes to let players break through adversity by themselves. It is said that if the player expresses insufficient playing time, Amorin will tell them to work hard and win positions with performance without providing specific instructions.

Amorin does not target anyone, and Casemiro was not valued when he first coached, but later became the main force again by his performance, especially in the European war. However, Meno's team felt he needed guidance and feedback, and this kind of management was not the best way to target young people. At this time, they forgot that they wanted to be on par with the maximum salary players in terms of income.

It is said that Meno's training at Carrington is normal, and his relationship with his teammates is fine, especially with French central defender Lennie Yoro, who is of the same age. The two train together in summer and go play together. But if Meno wants to achieve higher achievements, he needs to break through the bottleneck that limits the development of senior brothers such as Rashford and Greenwood, so that his abilities are more comprehensive, and he will not only play football with talent.

data shows that since 1937, Manchester United's first team has at least one youth training graduate on each match day list. However, it is only a matter of time before Garnacho's transfer is, and if Meno also leaves, the record of 4,323 games may face a termination.

At this moment, there are no youth training players in Manchester United's first team, and it is difficult to find even substitutes next. Central defender Taylor Frederickson is one of the few candidates. In fact, Manchester United has always been known for its strong spirit in history. The team should not have a "prince" with a delicate body. Only when everyone fights passionately can they be the real Red Devils.

More and more fans feel that Manchester United's youth training geniuses are so favored that they enjoy privileges at Old Trafford and Carrington and stagnate. Only by leaving the team can they regain the motivation to pursue progress.
