Erik ten Hag says he is happy Harry Maguire is staying at Manchester United - and that the defender must now fight for his position in the squad.
The England defender, 30, wants to play regularly again, and Dutch manager Ten Hag says he should grab his chance when it arrives."He has the abilities to do it, so he has to show it. It's about character, to be convinced to play that role. He has all the abilities and it's up to him when the time is there."in July. He had held the role since January 2020.against Wolves on Monday.
A deal was agreed between United and the Hammers but a source close to Maguire said that while he "respects West Ham and David Moyes" there was "never an agreement in place" over his personal terms. "That process, that's what I don't know," said Ten Hag when asked what happened with the proposed transfer."We have four good centre-halves - with Luke Shaw if you count him, we have five - and we need that because we are going to play 50-60 games this season, all the players are internationals, so we have a lot of load to cover so yeah, I'm very happy Harry Maguire is here.
He said: "We are Manchester United, we are always looking for improvement and when there is the opportunity we will strike, also in the last two weeks."
