Overview

• Saudi Pro League clubs have approached the Manchester United centre-back, whose potential move would need to be completed before the league’s 23 September deadline.
• Maguire has informed interested teams that he intends to remain at Old Trafford until his contract expires in 2026, with any move considered only after this season.
• Manchester United exercised a one-year option on his deal, and the 32-year-old has made over 200 appearances since his £85 million transfer from Leicester.
• United turned down bids from Premier League and Italian clubs during the summer window, according to the reports.
• Selling the defender now would bring in funds that cannot be reinvested until January, a factor that reinforces the value of his depth under Ruben Amorim’s three-centre-back approach.
