July 7, according to the Mirror, Manchester United’s hierarchy has decided to sell Harry Maguire this summer.
De Ligt is Manchester United’s main target for this summer, and at the same time, Manchester United are also in talks with Everton over a transfer for Branthwaite. If Manchester United sign a new centre-back, Maguire’s playing time will be further squeezed.
According to the Mirror, Erik ten Hag has already spoken to De Ligt, and the Dutch centre-back is seen as the core of Manchester United’s defence next season, and he will form a new centre-back partnership with Lindelof.
Manchester United’s new director of football John Murtough agrees, and he hopes to make a transfer fee by selling Maguire. After all, the 31-year-old Maguire only started 18 times in the Premier League last season, and his contract is only for one more year.
It is worth mentioning that Manchester United are willing to swap Maguire for Branthwaite, and West Ham are also interested in Maguire, but after signing Kurt Zouma for £40m, will the Hammers bring in Maguire?
