In the surprising event on Wednesday, Manchester United fans have taken over social media platforms to share their sheer gratitude to West Ham United as they agreed to the transfer move of former Manchester United captain Harry Maguire. The Defender deal is estimated to be worth around £30 million.
The signing comes in after weeks of speculations in the transfer market. Earlier West Ham’s initial offer was around £20 million for the English defender. However, as per the latest reports, it is suggested that both sides have come to a principle agreement, signalling the joining of Maguire’s move to East London.
Harry Maguire’s journey at Manchester United was not very impressive and full of ups and downs. The stout defender was once one of the most expensive defenders with a whopping signing of £80 million move from Leicester City back in 2019. Although playing alongside prolific defenders like Lisandro Martinez and Rafael Varane, Maguire struggled to secure a spot in the team lineup.
Maguire’s presence at West Ham may be needed to strengthen their defense wall. The Hammers are ready to kick off their new upcoming premier league season with the opening match against Bournemouth on August 12th. It remains to be seen how Maguire adapts to West Ham’s manager David Moyes and proves himself in the competitive league.
