Harry Maguire's status as a central defender for England remains unclear as manager Thomas Tuchel weighs his options. Despite being a key player in the past, Maguire missed Euro 2024 due to injury and has been sidelined at Manchester United. Tuchel acknowledges that while Maguire will always be considered, he believes Ezri Konsa and Marc Guehi are in better form and rhythm. Additionally, Tuchel noted that choosing a player who might not be fit presents risks, complicating Maguire’s return to the squad amidst his ongoing struggles at club level.
"Harry Maguire will always be in contention for Thomas Tuchel's England squads, but the Three Lions boss admits Manchester United's use of a back three complicates matters."
"Maguire, who missed Euro 2024 due to injury, was omitted from two of the three squads selected by Lee Carsley during his interim period in charge last year."
