Harry Maguire's Contract to Be Extended by Manchester United
Manchester United is set to activate a clause to extend Harry Maguire's contract for another season despite earlier transfer speculations.
Harry Maguire, the central defender for Manchester United, revealed in an interview that he is in discussions with the club to extend his contract. The current deal, set to expire at the end of the season, includes an option for United to automatically extend it by another year.
During the summer transfer window, Manchester United reportedly considered selling Maguire and entertained offers for the player. However, the 30-year-old defender opted to stay at the club and continue his tenure.
In a recent interview, Maguire shared: "I haven't given it serious thought yet. The season isn't over, and they have the option to extend my contract automatically. However, all signs so far are positive, and my discussions with the club have gone well."
The decision to begin negotiations reflects the club's satisfaction with Maguire's performances this season. Head coach Ruben Amorim has also expressed his approval, further solidifying the club's intent to keep the defender.
