Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted July 13, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted July 13, 2019 He'll be going to Manchester this summer I think. The ITK message is basically that he wants Manchester City and that Leicester are happy to sell him to them if they meet our asking price, no issues. Manchester United will pay it, but Maguire wants Manchester City, however if they don't pay it, he will go to Manchester United. We are also a lot more funny about him going to Manchester United and it's for two reasons - one is that with the situations of both clubs, we consider Manchester United a genuine competitor in the league this year, and the other is that by going there over Manchester City, we're taking the stance that it's for the money rather than the glory. But basically, he's going I think. Go and sign Nathan Ake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ 5,358 Posted July 14, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 14, 2019 Leicester's England defender Harry Maguire, 26 - linked with a £75m move to Manchester United - has told the Foxes he wants to leave. (Mail) Maguire has accused Leicester of pricing him out of a move, with both Manchester United and Manchester City having £70m bids rejected.

If I'm Leicester's transfer team now and I don't fully trust Soyuncu or Benkovic yet, then I'd go and buy Ake, who I think is arguably better than Maguire anyway. Called from the start Manchester United will panic and pay something silly. I like Maguire, but he's got so many features about him that boosts his market value above his footballing ability. He is an upgrade for Manchester United, but eighty million's worth? Put it this way - our best centre half last year was someone they sold for about nine million.

6666 1,310 Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 £80m. For Harry McGuire. And these cunts complain about the Glazers not spending enough even though they spend insane amounts regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, a few things boost his value up beyond what it's worth. Being English. Playing in the Premier League. Having a good World Cup (bit of revisionism here by the way, saw plenty slating him in the group stages). Add in he's also quite an iconic figure with the fans, the England fans love him. These are all things I think that add a premium, rightly or wrongly. It's why I've always said he's the one I'd probably sell because we'll get more for him than we should. Sure enough.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ 5,358 Posted July 14, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 14, 2019 If you want to believe a SUN report Man Utd agree £80m transfer for Harry Maguire, medical scheduled for tomorrow MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly agreed on a deal of around £80m with Leicester City for Harry Maguire. The Leicester defender informed the club in the past few days that he was unhappy that they could potentially price him out of a move. That has resulted in instant action from the Foxes who now look to have granted his wishes of an exit. The Sun claims that an agreement between the two clubs has now been reached.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,661 Posted July 14, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 14, 2019 Leicester will get two equal or better centre backs with that money if they want to. Ridiculous from Man Utd. The sad thing is they've got their fist so deep in the worldwide merchandising industry that they'll be able to keep spending £300m a year to go backwards and they won't get close to violating financial fair play even without the Champions League money.
