Search of Manchester United captain Harry Maguire's home after bomb threat reveals nothing suspicious

A sweep today of Manchester United captain Harry Maguire's home after he received a 'serious' bomb threat found nothing suspicious, police said in an update tonight. As reported by the Manchester Evening News , Maguire received the threat - understood to have been an email - on Wednesday after United's humbling 4-0 loss to Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League.

Defender Maguire, 29, alerted police and on Thursday, officers were dispatched to his family home in Wilmslow, Cheshire, together with a specialist police explosives dog as a follow-up. Cheshire Police tonight issued an updated statement.

The force said 'no suspicious items' were found in the security sweep, but confirmed an investigation into the bomb threat remained ongoing. No arrests have been made as yet, the force added.
