Harry Maguire booed by England fans amid struggling Man Utd form

Harry Maguire was booed by his own fans ahead of England's friendly with Ivory Coast at Wembley on Tuesday.

The Manchester United defender was named in the starting lineup by Gareth Southgate despite his struggling form at club level. Southgate has kept faith with Maguire, who was arguably one of England's better players on their run to the Euro 2020 final.

But his inclusion in the side prompted jeers from Three Lions supporters, as Maguire's name on the teamsheet was met by a chorus of boos when read out over the stadium tannoy ahead of kick-off. The 29-year-old did not feature in England's last fixture against Switzerland on Saturday, but was brought in to partner Tyrone Mings at the heart of the defence for the clash with Ivory Coast.
