Manchester United’s talented 18-year-old player, Kobbie Mainoo, is open to accepting a call-up from the England national team for their upcoming friendly matches. However, he is also considering keeping his options open for his international future. Mainoo, who has represented England in the lower levels, is eligible to play for Ghana, and the Ghanaian Football Association has expressed their interest in having him switch his allegiance. The Daily Mail reports that Mainoo is prepared to accept an England call-up but is still considering the possibility of representing Ghana.
With the upcoming friendly matches against Brazil and Belgium, Mainoo would have the opportunity to switch to Ghana if he participates, as these matches are not competitive. England manager Gareth Southgate is keen to have the young Manchester United star in his squad, especially considering his impressive performances for the club this season. Southgate may even consider including Mainoo in his squad for the Euros, as there are places up for grabs and some current players are not performing at their best. This could be a strategic move by Southgate to secure Mainoo’s long-term commitment to the England team.
