Kobbie Mainoo is believed to have committed his long-term future to Manchester United. It signifies not only the final step in his remarkable redemption, but also extends the club’s long history of success with homegrown stars.
Mainoo didn’t start a single Premier League game this season until after the club parted with Ruben Amorim on Jan. 4. Since Michael Carrick was appointed interim manager, the 21-year-old has started 12 of 13 league matches—only missing one because of a minor injury.
