West Ham United, the Premier League football club, has reportedly shown keen interest in securing the services of Harry Maguire from Manchester United this summer. The speculation comes on the heels of Maguire being stripped of the captaincy at his current club, spreading rumors that he may be put up for sale.
Maguire, who joined Manchester United in 2019 from Leicester City for a record-breaking fee, has had a mixed tenure at Old Trafford. While he initially made a significant impact, establishing himself as a defensive mainstay, recent events have put his future at the club in doubt. The decision to remove Maguire as captain was no surprise for fans. Although the exact reasons behind the decision remain undisclosed, it has created a buzz that the English center-back could be on the move in the upcoming transfer window.
West Ham United, under the guidance of manager David Moyes, has been steadily building a competitive squad in recent seasons. The Hammers’ impressive finish in the Premier League last term has showcased their ambition, and they now seek to further strengthen their defensive ranks.
