West Ham United have been linked with a move for 30-year-old Manchester United defender Harry Maguire this summer.
According to a report from The Guardian, West Ham United have now cooled their interest in Harry Maguire. The Hammers had agreed personal terms with the 30-year-old Manchester United outcast. But talks of a compensation from the Red Devils have scuppered the deal.
There have been reports that West Ham would to sign the player for £30 million. But the Hammers have now grown tired of waiting, and they are prepared to walk away from the transfer due to disagreements between the 30-year-old and Manchester United over a compensation.
They have already agreed personal terms with the English international. Maguire would have to take a significant pay cut in order to seal a move to West Ham, and the defender is reportedly demanding £7 million from Manchester United to leave the club.
He has not been able to agree on an exit with the Red Devils, and West Ham are not prepared to wait any longer. The Hammers need to bring in defensive reinforcements this summer, and Maguire would have been a quality option.
The 30-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at Old Trafford, and he needs to leave the club in order to play regularly. A move to West Ham would have been id eal for all parties. The Hammers will be competing in the UEFA Europa League this season, and they need to tighten up defensively in order to do well in the European competition.
Maguire has previously proven his quality in the Premier League, and he could have certainly helped West Ham improve at the back. The 30-year-old will be determined to get his career back on track, and regular football at West Ham could have helped him regain his confidence and form.
With the European Championships coming up next summer, Maguire will be looking to cement his place as a regular starter in the Premier League. The lack of football this season could result in him losing his place in the England starting lineup. And the 30-year-old will not want to take that risk.
The Englishman has two years left on his current contract with the Red Devils, and it remains to be seen whether Manchester United are prepared to pay him off. The report from The Guardian claims that a deal for Maguire could be revived later on in the window. But West Ham are now prepared to walk away and look at potential alternatives.
