Man Utd: Kobbie Mainoo's highlights v Wolves in FA Youth Cup go viral

Kobbie Mainoo is a name some Manchester United fans may not know as of yet.

But in the near future, it’s very likely that they will, because the 16-year-old midfielder is starting to turn heads with his performances for the club’s Under-18 side.
