Manchester United’s defense is shaken again. Indeed, Harry Maguire, sent off during the 2-2 draw against Bournemouth, now faces an FA charge for insulting the fourth official. The 33-year-old defender had already received a one-match suspension for holding Evanilson, denying the opposition a clear scoring opportunity, but his behavior following the sending off could result in a further sanction.
Maguire has until April 2 to respond to the accusations, casting doubt on his presence in the Red Devils’ upcoming Premier League matches. This situation is reminiscent of another similar sanction for Maguire, inflicted during his red card with Leicester… against Bournemouth in 2019. The England international will thus miss the trip against Leeds and could see his suspension extended before the clash at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea.
