Man United and Man City to battle for Maguire

Sources have told ESPN that United are ready to renew their interest in Maguire, having failed to sign him last summer when Leicester put his price at £80m.

Sky claim that this time around the club won’t even name a price for the 26-year-old because they don’t want to sell — though that £80m figure appears again in the story, which would be a world-record fee for a defender after the £75m Liverpool spent on Virgil van Dijk last year.

Maguire has evidently got no major desire to move on, and only signed a new five-year contract in September, though Leicester are lining up Burnley defender James Tarkowski  as a replacement should it happen.
