Reports by the Daily Mail on Monday, November 27, 2023, suggest that there is a growing indication that Mainoo, who has Ghanaian heritage but was born in Stockport, England, is leaning towards choosing to represent England over Ghana in international competitions. Despite his Ghanaian roots, Mainoo is yet to compete for England at the senior level, leaving him eligible to play for Ghana.
Owing to his standout display, the interest in Mainoo from both England and Ghana has intensified, particularly following his pivotal role in Manchester United's 3-0 victory over Everton. The young phenom's outstanding stats from the game included a 100% tackles won record, an 83% pass accuracy, and several crucial contributions that earned praise from Manchester United legends Gary Neville and Roy Keane.

Similarly, Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes hailed Mainoo as his "Man of the Match," commending the youngster's exceptional composure, quality, and perceptive understanding of the game despite his tender age.
