Harry Maguire idea raised over Man Utd switch snub after sabotage declare

United have been prepared to dump Maguire, who’s fourth in Ten Hag’s centre-back pecking order and began simply eight Premier League video games final season.

But the 30-year-old resisted an exit, rejecting a £6m settlement supply and demanding double that if he was to depart Old Trafford.

And he now appears set to remain at United past the summer time deadline regardless of not that includes in both of the membership’s opening two Premier League video games this time period.

Allardyce – who has robust hyperlinks to West Ham and Maguire’s agent – claims his reluctance stems from the Hammers’ struggles final season after they narrowly prevented relegation to the Championship.

“He turned down West Ham, he’s turned him down. I know his agent really well,” Allardyce informed the No Tippy Tappy Football Podcast.

“I think – and this is no disrespect to West Ham because I managed them – he feels that with the troubles they had last season down at the bottom of the league, he doesn’t want to be going there. He wants something bigger.”

West Ham lifted the Europa Conference League however endured a dismal league marketing campaign, which can have sparked sad recollections from Maguire’s time at Hull City.

Maguire was an everyday starter for Hull after they suffered relegation in 2017 earlier than finishing a change to Leicester City.

He’s come a great distance since then, captaining Cristiano Ronaldo and lifting the Carabao Cup final season with Bruno Fernandes.

But his United profession hasn’t transpired as he’d have hoped, and Fernandes changing him as Ten Hag’s skipper was one of many newest reminders of his doubtless function this time period.

Earlier this week, Glen Johnson accused Maguire of sabotaging his transfer to West Ham as a result of he wasn’t assured in reviving his profession on the London Stadium.
