Manchester United will unlikely sell Harry Maguire in the January transfer window amid widespread reports linking him with a winter exit.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Harry Maguire faces an uncertain future at Manchester United heading into the January transfer window. Recent updates have pointed to the Red Devils being ready to cash in on the English defender this winter. However, Give Me Sport has refuted such claims, suggesting the Red Devils will unlikely cash in on him in the coming weeks.
Harry Maguire and his Manchester United spell
Harry Maguire has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining Manchester United from Leicester City in July 2019. While the Englishman has struggled for game time under the tutelage of Erik ten Hag, he has made his mark whenever he has taken the pitch, with 2021/22 the only below-par season for the experienced defender.
The 31-year-old, who currently pockets £190,000-a-week wages at Manchester United, has turned out over 200 times thus far for the Red Devils while chipping in with 12 goals and eight assists. However, Maguire faces an uncertain future at Old Trafford after entering the final 12 months of his contract with Manchester United.
Widespread reports have painted a contradictory picture surrounding the English international, with recent updates pointing to Manchester United’s desire to sell him in the January transfer window. However, the latest brief has claimed that a winter departure will unlikely see the light of day.
What next?
A few reports have also suggested that Manchester United have conditions to extend the English defender’s contract. The report by Give Me Sport has claimed that the Red Devils will unlikely cash in on Harry Maguire and get his £190,000-a-week wages off their books in the January transfer window.
Maguire has again produced dependable performances for Manchester United this season amid the inconsistencies of Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt. So, the Premier League giants should keep hold of the 31-year-old until the 2025 summer transfer window.
It will be interesting to see if Give Me Sport’s claims are true amid uncertainties surrounding Harry Maguire’s long-term future. The picture will become clearer when we get closer to the winter transfer window.
