Dread ‘Star’ Lock: Kobbie Mainoo shows off a fresh new haircut ahead of Man United pre-season comeback after Euro 2024 final heartbreak vs England

Kobbie Mainoo has shown his new haircut ahead of the 2024-25 season with Manchester United.

The skilled midfielder is preparing for this year’s campaign after losing the Euro 2024 final to Spain.

Despite early criticism of the Three Lions, the 19-year-old was one of the standout performers.

He had a breakout season at Old Trafford last year, establishing himself as a regular under Erik ten Hag before earning his stripes with the Three Lions ahead of the European Championship.

He has now resorted to social media to show off his shiny new hairstyle before the season begins.

The midfielder struggled to make an impact when Spain defeated England 2-1 in the final.

Graeme Souness chastised Mainoo earlier this week for ‘not understanding his position’ following England’s 2-1 defeat to Spain on Sunday.

Mainoo started the tournament on the bench, as Gareth Southgate experimented with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Conor Gallagher, and Declan Rice in midfield, but he started all four knockout games after excelling as a replacement.

The teenager impressed as one of England’s best performers against Slovakia, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, earning a place in the final after only eight caps for his country.

Mainoo struggled to make an impact during the final in Berlin and was replaced midway through the second half by substitute Cole Palmer, who cancelled out Nico Williams’ strike with a superb equaliser from outside the box before Mikel Oyarzabal scored a heartbreaking 86th-minute winner for Spain.

Despite agreeing that Mainoo is’very talented on the ball’, Souness criticized the kid for his ‘naivety’ in an England shirt, alleging that he ‘wanders’ too far from his midfield position.

England’s Jude Bellingham and Kobbie Mainoo appear despondent following the final.

‘I believe he’s incredibly good and talented with the ball,’ Souness said on the Up Front podcast.

‘But he doesn’t really understand the situation. He wanders, and he empties the middle of the field too quickly.

‘I watched him against Iceland (in England’s final Euro 2024 warm-up game), and he was getting flung to the left and right.

‘He came on as a substitute with England leading 1-0 (in their first Euro 2024 match against Serbia), and the first thing he did was chase down the goalkeeper and put him under pressure. It’s naivety; he’s still learning the game.
