Former Watford striker Troy Deeney has claimed that Harry Maguire's agent rang him after he criticised the Manchester United captain, suggesting that his comments were unfair.
The 34-year-old, who is currently at Birmingham City, made the claim while appearing on a podcast with former Watford teammate Ben Foster. The incident allegedly happened in 2020, with Deeney having questioned Maguire's form for the Reds during a radio interview a few years ago.
Maguire has struggled for minutes under Erik ten Hag so far this season, with the England international making just 15 appearances in all competitions. The United centre-back has started on just four occasions in the Premier League.
