The other defender that interests Manchester United is Harry Maguire. The Leicester City defender’s stock is very high right now after a great World Cup with England in Russia.

However, according to Sky’s Dharmesh Sheth, it is unlikely that the Foxes will sell him as he has four years left on his contract and that the departure of Riyad Mahrez to Manchester City makes it all the more impossible for Leicester City to consider selling him in this window.

“I’d say so, particularly with Maguire they can probably ask for what they want because he still has four years left on his contract, he was signed from Hull City last summer," he said.

“He’s only been there one season. I can’t see Leicester saying ‘yeah, go on’ having sold Mahrez as well to Manchester City having to sell another player.

“There’s also rumours of Kasper Schmeichel as well.

“You couldn’t imagine in one summer them selling three players all the way down the spine of that team.”
