Manchester United, agreement for a historic flop

The most expensive defender in history when he was recruited by Manchester United, Harry Maguire did not give satisfaction and will leave the Red Devils, heading to West Ham.

The expectations were huge but they were not met. Arrived from Leicester in the summer of 2019, Harry Maguire then became the most expensive defender in history. Paid 87 million euros by Manchester United, the English international has never really confirmed his status. Taken in dislike by a good part of the Mancunian public, the native of Sheffield has gradually lost his confidence and his performances have suffered. If United and its various coaches have long believed they can find the Harry Maguire of the Leicester years, the time is now for change.

According to information relayed by the Dailymail, the 30-year-old should pack up and head for London where West Ham opened the door for him. THE Hammers would have offered the sum of thirty-five million euros to enlist the services of the experienced Englishman. The outlet also added that discussions are continuing, but that the final details that remain to be settled should not change the course of things.

Regain confidence

The four painful years lived by Harry Maguire at Manchester United are therefore about to end. By joining a lesser club on stage in the Premier League, the defender could well take the opportunity to regain the confidence and level he displayed before joining the Red Devils.
