He’s a modern day Steve Bruce!” Maguire saw his stock rise throughout the 2017-18 season. He starred for Leicester in the Premier League before going on to become a key figure for England during their run to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup.United’s inability to bring in a player of his ilk over the summer has come back to haunt them, with Mourinho’s side having seen defensive frailties contribute to a testing start to the current campaign. Eric Bailly and Victor Lindelof have looked shaky at times, although the latter did help to keep a welcome clean sheet alongside Chris Smalling in the Red Devils’ last outing at Burnley.</blockquote>
