MU let Harry Maguire leave for cheap in early 2025

The former MU captain is in the final year of his contract at Old Trafford, and after the 2024/25 season, he will become a free agent.

Although United have the option to extend Maguire’s contract by another 12 months, the club’s board are looking to sell the England centre-back rather than let him go for free. According to the Daily Star, the fee of around £10 million is a far cry from the £80 million the club spent to sign him from Leicester City in 2019.

Maguire attracted interest from West Ham last season but decided to stay and fight for a regular place. He has started three of United's seven Premier League games so far and is regarded as one of the best players in the defence.

Statistics show that Maguire has a better rate of winning duels and aerial duels than both Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez. However, he recently suffered an injury in the match against Aston Villa and is expected to be out for the next few weeks. Before that, Maguire scored the equalizer in the match against Porto, showing his positive form for the team.
