The Star-Ledger broke the story.
Manchester United Football Club
I'm planning to sell it next January.
Maguire (name)
Maguire has not been used much at Manchester United, where he has made only 18 Premier League starts in the 2023-24 season due to injuries. Maguire has not been used much at United under Ten Hahn, making only 18 Premier League starts in the 2023 - 24 season due to injuries. United have De Ligt, Lisandro Martinez and Jolo (who returned at the end of October), all of whom are ahead of Maguire in the starting order.
The Star adds that Maguire won't be back until November, and that Ten Hahn doesn't see him as an important player. When the winter window opens next January, United will accept an offer for Maguire of roughly £10m. Maguire's value has dropped dramatically with his move from Leicester City to United in the summer of 2019 for a transfer fee of £80m. Maguire fell out of favor when Ten Hahn took over at United because of his turnaround and slowness. Last summer, United agreed to sell Maguire to West Ham for a fee of 30 million, but the transfer was unsuccessful due to a lack of agreement on wage compensation. Next January, United want to sell him for 10 million.
Maguire's contract with Manchester United expires next summer, with a 1-year extension right. United's management wants to purge the old players to rebuild the team, Maguire becomes the "sacrifice". And Maguire's weekly salary of 200,000 pounds is one of the reasons why United wants to clean him. If they can't sell Maguire next January, United will activate his contract extension (until 2026) and then sell him next summer. United don't want to let Maguire go for free, or else they'll lose both. Although United have lost a lot of money by buying Maguire for 80 million and selling him for 10 million.
