Harry Maguire has been told he is free to leave Manchester United this summer, with Erik ten Hag keen to use the transfer window to reshape his squad.
United are looking to earn as much as £50million from the defender’s sale, it has been claimed. He could join Fred, Scott McTominay and Jadon Sancho in departing the club before the window closes on September 1.
Even if Maguire does stay – and that is a possibility, given he has two years left on his contract and will be reluctant to give up his wages – the captaincy will be stripped from him.
