Mainoo has established himself as a firm fan favourite since breaking into the first team at Old Trafford.
In just 18 months, the boy has gone from being unknown to a full England international.
This week, Mainoo collaborated with sticker maker Topps Match Attax to create lifelong memories for three young fans.
After winning a sticker competition, the kids were instructed to go to a Manchester newsagent.
Spirits were high among the winners as they went to collect their 100-pack Match Attax gift box.
But little did they know the sticker sets would be presented by Mainoo himself.
In a heartwarming clip, the kids are seen gasping with shock as Mainoo appears behind the counter.
He signed a special card for the three young fans, sending them home with a prized collectable.
Mainoo told Topps: “Meeting these young fans was an unbelievable moment, seeing their faces light up as we surprised them was really special.
“Growing up, I loved collecting Match Attax cards and trading with my friends at school, so being part of this alongside Billy was something really special.
“Seeing their raw passion for football and the excitement these cards bring reminds me of why I love the game.”
Ian Foster, the company’s Marketing and Digital Content Director, added: “This content encapsulates what Match Attax is all about – bringing fans closer to their football heroes.
“Kobbie’s surprise appearance created an unforgettable memory for these superfans and we were delighted to bring it to life.
“With innovative new inserts for the 2024/25 season, including some incredible ultra-rare cards to chase in special packs, Topps is looking forward to delivering more exciting moments like this to enhance the experience of our collectors.”
In the Premier League match between United and Aston Villa, Mainoo sustained a knock.
The 19-year-old was left out of the England team to play Finland and Greece.
