T-shirt protest sparks talk at Old Trafford

Kobbie Mainoo’s brother turned heads at Old Trafford, wearing a “FREE KOBBIE MAINOO” shirt during Manchester United’s 4-4 draw with Bournemouth. With Mainoo yet to start any of United’s 16 league matches under Ruben Amorim, fans wondered if the shirt came with transfer paperwork attached.

Amorim explained his reluctance to drop Bruno Fernandes, insisting he stays open to talks. Paul Scholes, meanwhile, urged Mainoo not to let lack of game time stall his promising rise after last season’s FA Cup heroics.
