Menu became the focus of the 2025 summer transfer market. With Manchester United's future prospects unknown, as many as ten clubs have shown strong interest in him and are interested in taking the young midfielder away from Old Trafford.

According to the Daily Mail, ten clubs have been preparing to submit official offers to Manchester United, waiting for the "Red Devils" to nod and let them go. However, since Maynu's current contract has two years and a one-year renewal option, Manchester United will inevitably demand a high transfer fee. Despite this, the 20-year-old England star is willing to seriously consider leaving the team in order to seek a more stable chance of playing.

The Guardian revealed that Chelsea also kept its attention to Menu. However, it is unlikely that he will switch to Stamford Bridge. Because the Blues' current priority target for signings is another Manchester United player - Argentine striker Alejandro Garnacho. But Garnacho's transfer is deadlocked: Manchester United priced him £50 million, while Chelsea is only willing to bid £35 million, with a big gap between the two sides.

With only a few days left before the 2025 summer transfer window is closed, Manchester United must carefully weigh whether to retain the potential star or take the opportunity to sell it in exchange for funds for reconstruction. For Menu, his career is also facing a critical crossroads.

During the coaching period of Tenghager, Maynu was regarded as a treasure of Manchester United and was highly expected to become the center of the midfield of the team and even the England national team. However, with Ruben Amorin taking over as head coach, his situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Amorin is used to using a 3-4-2-1 formation, while Menu and Bruno Fernandez overlap, and they must directly compete for the same starting position - this is almost an unwinding contest.

Amorin said bluntly: "Bruno and Kobe play in the same position. At Manchester United, he must fight for the chance to play, it's that simple." As a result, Maynu has not yet obtained even one minute of playing time in the Premier League this season. His only chance to make a debut is the League Cup match against English League Two team Greensby on August 28.

Now, this young midfielder who was once highly anticipated is standing at an important turning point in his career.
