Erik ten Hag offered solution to Manchester United captaincy dilemma with Harry Maguire

Manchester United have been offered a solution to their captaincy dilemma as Erik ten Hag continues to mull over who will wear the armband next season. Changes are starting to be sanctioned at Old Trafford in the dressing room and as part of a wider shake-up behind the scenes.

Harry Maguire has been skipper since shortly after his £80million switch from Leicester City three years ago. However, due to his lack of form and influence, question marks have been raised over his status and Ten Hag left the matter open when addressing the media upon his appointment in the Old Trafford dugout.

United goalkeeper David de Gea and Cristiano Ronaldo would come under consideration as possible options, while Bruno Fernandes has previously acted as vice-captain to Maguire.
