Overview
- Harry Maguire, who signed a one-year extension in April to keep him at Old Trafford until 2027, is reported to remain available for transfer if a suitable offer arrives.
- Manager Michael Carrick values Maguire’s form and leadership and would prefer to keep him in the squad.
- Former United chief scout Mick Brown told media outlets that Maguire has been offered to other clubs and warned that selling him would be a mistake.
- Selling Maguire would remove an experienced leader who has helped stabilise the defence and mentor younger centre-backs such as Leny Yoro and Ayden Heaven.
- No formal bids have been confirmed and the club’s board and owners retain final control, so the outcome will likely be decided during the summer transfer window and indicate United’s priority between experience and squad investment.
