Paul Merson has revealed that he personally called Harry Maguire to apologise for the disparaging comments he made about the Manchester United captain.
When Maguire joined United for a world-record fee for a defender in 2019, Merson branded the £80million figure "ridiculous". His comments from that time frequently trend on social media when Maguire endures a poor performance, with many agreeing with the criticism.
While Maguire's move to the Red Devils has been a disaster, Merson has still been left feeling conflicted - so much so that he decided to phone Maguire to apologise for how fierce his criticism about the move to Old Trafford was.
