BENGALURU: Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim understands why Kobbie Mainoo and Joshua Zirkzee may look to leave in January in search of regular football with the World Cup approaching but the Portuguese says he must put the club’s interests first.
Neither player has started a Premier League match this season, with Dutch forward Zirkzee playing only 82 minutes in the top flight, while England midfielder Mainoo totalled 138 minutes since August.
Both players have fallen out of the picture with their national teams and British media have reported the pair are looking for moves in the January transfer window to reignite their chances of playing at the June 11-July 19 World Cup in North America.
