Nemanja Matic has leapt to the defence of Manchester United skipper Harry Maguire and claimed the situation surrounding him is a “disaster”.
The Serbian played alongside Maguire for three seasons before he left Old Trafford for Roma at the start of the summer. And his departure has afforded Matic a unique vantage point of the furore engulfing the England international.
Reports earlier this year suggested that the fractured United dressing room was divided over Maguire’s status within the squad. Erik ten Hag quickly confirmed that Maguire would remain as captain, despite many within the confines of Carrington believing Cristiano Ronaldo should take over the responsibility.
