Maguire Commits to Manchester United with New Deal
Manchester United's defender Harry Maguire has agreed to a new one-year contract, with an option for an additional 12 months, extending his stay at Old Trafford into an eighth season. Maguire's previous deal was set to expire at the end of the current season. He expressed his desire to be part of a special campaign next season, believing the club is on an upward trajectory. Maguire has been a key player since Michael Carrick took charge, helping the team rise to third in the Premier League and earning an England recall. He has started every game under Carrick and is convinced the club has turned a corner. Maguire's new contract follows his England recall for the March internationals, where he featured in both games, raising hopes of making the World Cup squad. He has made 266 appearances for Manchester United, scoring 17 goals, and has won the FA Cup and League Cup during his seven years at the club. Director of football Jason Wilcox praised Maguire, stating he represents the mentality and resilience required to perform for the club. Maguire is looking forward to the new season, aiming to make it a special year for the club.
