Reports suggest that Tottenham Hotspur maintains their desire to acquire Harry Maguire, a star player from Manchester United, in the upcoming summer.
The Sun reports that Maguire is reportedly upset over being removed from his position as the United captain just recently.
The Spurs have already had an active presence in the summer window, bringing in Guglielmo Vicario, James Maddison, and Manor Solomon.
After a season of defensive struggles, Tottenham is predicted to turn their attention towards strengthening their defense next.
Last season, they conceded a substantial 63 goals in the Premier League, prompting them to consider recruiting several central defenders, including Maguire.
While Mickey van de Ven and Edmond Tapsoba are currently Tottenham’s primary targets for the role, Maguire is still in contention.
The England international was reportedly taken aback after losing the United captaincy according to multiple sources.
Maguire Shocked by Loss of United Captaincy
The Sun reports that Maguire is considering leaving Old Trafford this summer following his removal as captain.
On Twitter, Maguire recently announced that Erik ten Hag would be appointing a new team captain.
Reports suggest that the Dutch coach’s choice has left the 30-year-old player feeling bitter and surprised.
It is said that Tottenham, along with West Ham and Newcastle, are all interested in signing Maguire this summer, with Chelsea also contemplating a move.
Maguire’s tenure at United has been marked by some subpar performances and eroding confidence.
It’s not surprising news to see him lose the United captaincy, particularly as he barely played under Ten Hag’s leadership last season.
It’s likely he will leave United this summer, with journalist Dean Jones stating that he could potentially recoup around £35 million.
The Spurs seem to be currently eyeing Wolfsburg’s Van de Ven and Bayer Leverkusen defender Tapsoba, however, Maguire remains a serious contender.
Interestingly, a move for Maguire by Spurs would be unexpected as he seems to be a mismatch for Ange Postecoglou’s tactical strategy.
