Premier League club has 'concrete interest' in Harry Maguire with Man Utd star 'expected to leave'

The Daily Mail claimed on Tuesday that Tottenham had contacted United over a move for the 30-year-old centre-back, and could press ahead with their pursuit following the appointment of Ange Postecoglou.

Maguire has struggled for game time under Erik ten Hag this season, with the Dutchman telling The Times last week that the defender had 'a decision to make' over whether he stays at or leaves the club this summer.

The England international has started just one game since the 3-0 Europa League defeat at Sevilla on April 20, where he made defensive errors.

According to Football Insider, Aston Villa have 'concrete interest' in signing Maguire from United this summer.

A move to Villa Park would allow him to continue playing European football, with Unai Emery's side having qualified for next season's Europa Conference League on the final day of the Premier League season - at the expense of Spurs.

It is claimed that Villa enquired about Maguire in January. However, Ten Hag wanted to keep the 30-year-old at the club until the end of the season, as per The Sun, and promised to give him more chances to reclaim his place in the side.

While that did happen, with the Dutch manager praising the defender for his improvement after a 1-0 win over Everton in April, Football Insider add he is 'expected to leave' this summer.

According to Fabrizio Romano, United have identified Napoli star Kim Min-jae as their main transfer target at centre-back this summer - but will look to sign a defender from the French league if that move fails.
