One of the season’s breakout stars was 19-year-old midfielder Mainoo, who earned a spot on Gareth Southgate’s preliminary roster thanks to his spectacular performances at home.
Kobbie Mainoo of England participated in a friendly international match at Wembley.
England coach Gareth Southgate has included Kobbie Mainoo in his preliminary team for the 2024 European Championship.
If Kobbie Mainoo wants to continue his meteoric climb at Manchester United, he can, according to Jordan Henderson, take his game to the next level.
After a breakout season, 19-year-old midfielder Mainoo was named to Gareth Southgate’s preliminary England team for the European Championships in Germany this summer. His stellar performance at home earned him the spot. United defeated longtime rivals Manchester City 2-1 in this past weekend’s FA Cup final at Wembley, and he scored the game-winning goal in the process.
After moving from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ettifaq to Dutch giants Ajax in January, veteran Henderson, 33, was unable to board the Three Lions jet.
When the action begins on the continent next month, the former Liverpool midfielder believes that Mainoo and his younger colleagues may benefit from the team’s cohesiveness.
He assured the newcomers to the team, like Kobbie and a few of others, that they would fit in quickly and do their best once England takes the pitch.
The more seasoned players on the team have an obligation to help the newer ones settle in wherever feasible, especially when it comes to younger players.
“We want to make sure that they train well, play for England, express themselves and do what they’ve been doing for their club.”

In Southgate’s teams that were within striking distance of winning a major trophy for the first time since 1966, Henderson was an integral part of the machine.
The 81-cap veteran from Sunderland believes that England’s recent tragedies will fuel their desire to win it all this summer. He made his debut in 2010.
As part of a new partnership with LG leading up to Euro 2024, Henderson made the following comment: “It’s definitely important in terms of recent tournament experience — we’ve had some good moments and some not so good moments.”
At St. George’s Park, the English men’s team met up with LG. “It’s about experiences and using those going into a new tournament – new players coming in, refreshing the squad from previous major tournaments.” They said.
Our team has been improving over the last many years, and now we have the right mix of youth and experience to compete effectively in big events.
“We’ve just never quite got over the finish line, so that makes you more hungry – hopefully we can go one step further in the summer.”
In keeping with LG’s long-running relationship with The FA, the English men’s squad recently met up with the TV manufacturer at St. George’s Park.
