Kobbie Mainoo is ready for his third big test in a week for Manchester United at Newcastle on Saturday, says manager Erik ten Hag.
The teenage midfielder made an excellent Premier League debut in United’s win over Everton at a boisterous Goodison Park last Sunday, earning rave reviews for his composed performance.
Mainoo then came off the bench for Sofyan Amrabat in Wednesday’s Champions League draw against Galatasaray and looked comfortable in the febrile surroundings of Rams Park, even though he was marking Kerem Akturkoglu when the substitute scored an equaliser for the Turks.
