Woah. United Are Right To End Interest In This Player At The Price Quoted

|

Earlier this week, as we covered what was becoming an interesting spectacle, namely the chase to secure the services of the Leicester City centre-back Harry Maguire, our summary if you are a Maguire fan didn’t make for good reading.

Our article suggested that Maguire was going elsewhere united-set-to-lose-out-in-the-race-for-centre-back-to-you-know-who however, in a dramatic twist it would now appear that the player may be staying exactly where he is.

According to The Mirror, with Maguire still, officially a Leicester City player, Manchester United have pulled out of the race to sign the 26-year-old.

It seems if our quoted source has its facts correct, a deal to sign the defender would cost £100 million which is too steep for United, obviously.

Quite why Maguire is priced so highly is something I fail to comprehend.

If United were willing to pay such a high price for a centre-back, I’m convinced there are better than Maguire available.

It seems United, having announced that they’re after young English players, could have become the victims of their own aspirations.

    Maguire doesn’t worth more than 40 mil. What people see in this player I’ll never understand. Hw had a one
    decent season ,now he’s a world class star. It makes me laugh and cringe, that so called experts are so naive.

    I completely agree with Andy, above. Maguire is a very pedestrian CB but the obsession with buying British can only be the reason for clubs wanting him. I can think of at least half a dozen better, less expensive options. My personal choices would be Skriniar, Kabak, Ruben Dias, Koulibaly or Milenkovic.

    When you have Baily in his good spirit he is better than all united defenders including maguire,we can understand it is footballing politics,

  • Jim says:

    Price is high because Leicester City do not want to sell any of our best players at this time.

  • Edward says:

    Man city should focus on what will happen a head
    As we see what happened to Stones, it was just the same race like this one, where is his form now?
