Manchester United’s Harry Maguire announced on Sunday that he had been stripped of club captaincy, as Erik ten Hag continues his brutal rebuild at Old Trafford. The defender is keen to remain with the Red Devils next season, though several Premier League outfits are circling in the hope of securing his signature, including Chelsea and West Ham.
Though convincing Maguire that he needs to leave the club will not be a priority for United currently, as they look to Inter Milan star Andre Onana imminently. The Cameroon international is set to replace David de Gea between the sticks at the Theatre of Dreams, with the Red Devils hoping to have the deal completed in time for their US pre-season tour.
Elsewhere, Chelsea are also hoping to accelerate their negotiations with Brighton for midfielder Moises Caicedo. Talks have been ongoing between the two sides for weeks without an agreement being reached, and the Blues are hopeful of making some form of progress soon.
Arsenal and Liverpool will be keeping tabs on Caicedo’s situation closely now that they appear likely to re-enter the transfer market for midfielders. Both sides are set to lose players to the lucrative lure of the Saudi Pro League, and the prospect of signing the Ecuador international could prove attractive.
