With his fellow center-backs Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans set to depart the club when their contracts expire in June, reinforcements will need to be brought in during the upcoming transfer window to strengthen the position.

As Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his team prepare their plans for Ten Hag’s defensive lineup for the upcoming season, Maguire, who has one year left on his contract, is keen to ensure he remains a part of it. Reports suggest that the England international is eager to continue his tenure at United and has arranged discussions with the club’s leadership to clarify his situation.

In the meantime, despite a family holiday being on the cards, the 31-year-old has opted to prioritize early reporting for international duty in a bid to recover from injury and be fit in time for the Euros, commencing on June 14.
