Transfer News: Man Utd Close To £80million Capture Of New Defender

Maguire Close To United Move

Leicester City player and England international defender, Harry Maguire has reportedly departed his club’s training camp in France to undergo a Manchester United medical in the next 48 hours.

Respected football expert, Ian McGarry made the claim in a transfer window podcast.

“It’s our understanding that soon Maguire has already left Leicester’s training camp in France,” McGarry said.

“He will soon be coming back to the UK to finalise that deal with Man United.

“It will be £60million up front plus £20m in add-ons making him the most expensive defender in the world.

“He’s due to have a medical at Manchester United in the next 48 hours as soon as the conditions and terms of his contract are finalised.”

Naija News reports the two Premier League clubs have been in negotiations over the player’s future but had been unable to reach an agreement on the center-back’s valuation.
