England international, Harry Maguire, seems to be on his way to West Ham from Man United this summer after both Premier League clubs reached an agreement in principle. 

According to Sky Sports, both the Hammers and the Red Devils have agreed on a deal worth in the region of £30 million for the transfer of the Three Lions defender.

The 30-year-old, who has also fallen out of favour with the fans of the club, was recently stripped of the Man United’s armband by manager, Erik ten Hag, who has since appointed Bruno Fernandes as the club’s new captain.

Maguire’s lack of playing time may also affect his future with the national team, as English coach, Gareth Southgate has come under criticism for sticking with him despite not getting game time at United.  

He joined Man United from Leicester City in 2019 for a fee understood to be £80m and has since then made 118 appearances and scored 4 goals for the club.
