"Manchester United have reportedly been turning down transfer approaches for veteran defender Harry Maguire this January on instruction from Michael Carrick. The Red Devils seem set to keep Maguire at least until the end of his contract this summer, despite the England international having interest from the likes of AC Milan, according to the Sun. The report adds that new interim Man Utd manager Carrick has instructed the club to keep hold of Maguire this month,"
"The 32-year-old has not had the easiest time at United after his big-money move from Leicester City in 2019, but he's worked his way back into the first-team fold in recent times and looks to have won a lot of the fans over. It seems clear that Maguire still has a key role to play at United, even if he's likely to only be a squad player for the foreseeable future."
Manchester United have turned down transfer approaches for veteran defender Harry Maguire in January after interim manager Michael Carrick instructed the club to retain him. The club plans to keep Maguire until his contract expires this summer despite interest from AC Milan. Carrick views Maguire as a useful option for the next few months, even amid uncertainty over a new deal. United are unlikely to sign a new defender in January, which raises Maguire's short-term importance. Maguire struggled after his 2019 move from Leicester City but has returned to the first team and regained significant fan support. A summer departure as a free agent remains possible.
