Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag should take his time and keep all options open with regards to the club's captaincy dilemma. That is the message from ex-Liverpool player Danny Murphy amid suggestions the armband is set to be reassigned as part of a summer rebuild.
Harry Maguire has been captain since soon after his £80million move from Leicester in 2019. 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 served as vice-captain to Maguire.
