Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United are interested in signing Harry Maguire from Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United in the summer transfer window, according to 90min.
Newcastle United linked with Manchester United defender Harry Maguire
The report published this morning has claimed that Manchester United have told Maguire that he is free to leave at the end of the season.
The £200,000-a-week (SalarySport) England international centre-back has fallen down the pecking order at Old Trafford.
Newcastle are among the clubs who are monitoring the 30-year-old defender and want to sign him in the summer of 2023, according to the report.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have also been linked with Maguire.
Good potential signing for Newcastle
In our view, Manchester United central defender Harry Maguire would be a good signing for Newcastle United in the summer transfer window.
Yes, the 30-year-old has not always had the best of times at Old Trafford, but he is a very good defender with a lot of experience.
Maguire has played in major European competitions with Manchester United, and he is also a key figure in the England team.
We believe that the 30-year-old would make Newcastle better at the back and would enhance their chances of succeeding in Europe, if indeed the Magpies qualify for the UEFA Champions League and/or the UEFA Europa League in the coming years.
