Manchester United have rejected a loan bid from West Ham for their former captain Harry Maguire, who has been told he can leave the club.
The Hammers’ bid to sign the defender was given short shrift by the Red Devils, per The Guardian. The London club are open to doing business for Maguire this summer but believe his asking price – which has been reported to be £50 million ($65m) – is prohibitive.
Maguire has been told by England boss Gareth Southgate that he must play regularly if he is to make the Three Lions squad for Euro 2024, so he may have to make a decision this summer. Such is Erik ten Hag’s desire to move the defender on, he has stripped him of the club’s captaincy.
