Former Premier League and England defender Martin Keown has leapt to the defence of Manchester United captain Harry Maguire.
Maguire has come in for a lot of criticism over the past 12 months, with his form dipping dramatically following a strong start to his Old Trafford career. The former Leicester City centre-back has kept his place in the England squad under Gareth Southgate and is likely to feature for the Three Lions in this year's World Cup in Qatar.
Erik ten Hag's arrival in Manchester has led many to speculate that the Dutchman will be keen on improving his central defensive options, with links to Ajax's Jurrien Timber and Villarreal's Pau Torres. There are also rumours that Maguire will be stripped of the captain's armband, with Cristiano Ronaldo and David de Gea tipped to take on the role next season.
