Maguire Misses Leicester Training Amid Man Utd Rumours
Harry Maguire did not take part in training with Leicester City on Monday, after phoning in sick.
Reports say Maguire has told Leicester he wants to leave before the transfer window shuts on August 8 and he remains Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s number one target at Old Trafford.
United’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward remains in talks with Leicester about a deal, after Solskjaer made it clear he wanted to sign Maguire as soon as possible.
Leicester will not let Maguire leave for less than £80m, which is £10m more than United have currently offered.
Woodward decided to not travel out for United’s pre-season tour of Australia and the Far East to work on the ongoing negotiations.
According to reports, it is now up to Woodward to get the deal done.
