You won't believe the sacrifice Manchester United has to make to retain their worst player

Harry Maguire, the 31-year-old Manchester United defender, finds himself in a precarious position as his contract nears its end in June 2025. Despite speculation about a possible contract extension, the reality is that Maguire's future at Old Trafford is far from certain.

According to the Daily Star, the Red Devils are considering putting Maguire on the transfer market during the upcoming winter window. In fact, the club is reportedly willing to significantly lower their asking price to as little as €11.5 million in an effort to offload the underperforming center-back.

Maguire has been a subject of much criticism in recent seasons due to his inconsistent performances. His high transfer fee and captain's armband have placed immense pressure on the English defender, and his struggles have been a major talking point among fans and pundits alike.

Manchester United's decision to entertain offers for Maguire reflects the club's desire to revamp their defense and bring in fresh talent. The Red Devils have been linked with several top-class defenders in recent months, and the potential sale of Maguire could free up funds for new signings.}

Out of Favor: Maguire's Future at United Uncertain

However, offloading Maguire at a significant loss would be a major blow to the club's finances. The English defender was once considered one of the best center-backs in the world, but his value has plummeted in recent years. Nevertheless, Manchester United are prepared to take a hit on the transfer fee in order to get Maguire off their wage bill and move on from a player who no longer fits into their long-term plans.

As the January transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Maguire to see if he can rediscover his best form and convince Manchester United to keep him at the club. If not, it seems increasingly likely that the England international will be playing his football elsewhere in the near future.
