Manchester United have shared a video message from Mainoo with the 18-year-old midfielder invited Daniel to watch a match at Old Trafford.

“I’m really sorry about the passing of your father and I’m glad you could share such a special moment together and I could play a small part in that. I wanted to invite you and your son to a game soon so we’ll get in touch and get everything sorted. Stay strong and I’ll see you soon,” Mainoo said in the video posted by the club on X.

Danielle wrote about he celebrated the victory alongside his father in the latter’s hospital room and then watched Kobbie’s post-match interview.

“Really keen to try and get someone at @ManUtd or @MU_Foundation to get this message to Kobbie, so any shares or retweets would be much appreciated. Sadly my Father (Vincent Killeen) lost his brave battle against cancer yesterday. The last game we watched together was the Wolves game, just the two of us in his hospital room. When Wolves equalised we were both so frustrated,” Danielle wrote.

“I have never willed United to score more than that moment and then Kobbie Mainoo steps up with an amazing winner. Seeing Dads arm in the air, a smile on his face and declaring “that’s why you watch United”. When he saw that you were doing an interview, he insisted that I stay so he could listen. I know football should be about winning trophies, but you will never score a more important goal for our family Kobbie. You are already a hero in our household and you are now my 7 year olds favourite player. Thank you for a truly brilliant and special moment. I am sure your career will bring many of them. The Killeen Family,” he added.
