Clarence Seedorf Praises ‘Complete’ Kobbie MainooClarence Seedorf Praises ‘Complete’ Kobbie Mainoo Kobbie Mainoo has drawn comparisons to legendary midfielder Clarence Seedorf since breaking into the Manchester United first team. Former United defender Rio Ferdinand initially made the comparison, which has since been echoed by Seedorf himself. In an interview with Ferdinand, Seedorf lauded Mainoo’s all-around skills, calling him the “complete package” in midfield. He highlighted Mainoo’s ability to win possession in congested areas, his composure, and his leadership qualities. “He’s not afraid to get balls in traffic, which is good,” Seedorf said. “He often comes out of it really well. Just his personality, head up, which means I’m in control of the situation. “These seem like very simple things, but they mean so much to a team.” These compliments from Seedorf are a testament to Mainoo’s potential. At just 19 years old, he has already demonstrated an impressive skill set and maturity that belies his age. Kobbie Mainoo Can Become World-Class Player by Winning Euro 2024 Mainoo’s progress could reach new heights if he helps England win the 2024 European Championship. As a key contributor to the victorious team, he would establish himself as a world-class midfielder. This would be a significant achievement for both Mainoo and Manchester United. It would further cement Mainoo’s status as one of the most promising young players in the world and provide United with a player capable of competing at the highest level. Next season could prove to be a scary one for Mainoo’s opponents in 2024/25.
Since his arrival in the Manchester United first team, Kobbie Mainoo has been compared to Clarence Seedorf.
After Kobbie Mainoo made his Premier League debut against Everton, Rio Ferdinand drew comparisons with Clarence Seedorf.
Mainoo’s elusive debut was the moment he came into the world and Ferdinand made the bold comparison, which soon proved to be anything but bold.
Manchester United will be pleased with Mainoo’s progress, his qualities making him increasingly important to both club and country.

Clarence Seedorf praises ‘complete’ Kobbie Mainoo
Ferdinand’s first comparison has now been completed, as the legendary United defender now interviews Seedorf about Mainoo.
Speaking to FIVE, Seedorf has now labelled Mainoo the “complete package” in midfield. This comes just a month after the Real Madrid legend suggested Mainoo has a quality he never had.
“He’s not afraid to get balls in traffic, which is good, he often comes out of it really well. Just his personality, head up, which means I’m in control of the situation.
“These seem like very simple things, but they mean so much to a team.”
This is a huge compliment to Mainoo, coming from Seedorf who was so important to every team he played for. At 19, there are still so many levels the talented No. 37 can improve on and we can only imagine how perfect he will be in a few seasons.
Kobbie Mainoo can become world-class player by winning Euro 2024
The term ‘world class’ is thrown around a lot and often too quickly. That said, Mainoo is on the verge of being considered a world class talent rather than a prospect.
Being a starting midfielder and having played a key role in such a triumph, he can be considered a world-class attacker in the future.
This is excellent for United as Mainoo’s experiences here will certainly have helped him develop further.
Next season could prove to be a scary one for Mainoo’s opponents in 2024/25.
