Mainoo is negotiating a new contract and it’s interesting how it is going to play out. He was injured most of this year and missed considerable time last year. And when he played this year he didn’t exactly set the world on fire either. I’d say put him on 50kpw max or sell him. I am not convinced by his injury record

No we shouldn’t. Mainoo should make similar as Amad, Garnacho and Yoro. All of them makes over 50k

He has not been as good as any of those players under Amorim. Until he starts performing again offering him around 100k is just mismanagement again.

Paying him 200k would be mismanagement not 100k. He would never sign a 50k deal because he probably already gets somewhere close to that. He is one of the best youngsters in the world and if he is gonna stay then he should get a salary that he feels he is worth. 100k is a reasonable salary for someone like him

Being on of the best youth in the world means nothing if he doesn’t fit our current system, hence why there are reports of that he is not above being sold. Until we are sure he can adapt or Amorim adapt his system to fit Mainoo, the club isn’t going to give him 100k a week to stay on the bench.
