Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has revealed that he is not worried about Harry Maguire’s contract situation and is focused on the upcoming games.
The defender’s contract expires at the end of this season, but Manchester United have yet to make a concrete decision on his departure. He has been linked with a club in Saudi Arabia in recent months and it remains to be seen whether the Red Devils are willing to make a move for him.
Ruben Amorim talks about Harry Maguire
Amorim told Sky Sports: “We are really happy with Prince Harry. It’s not the right time to talk about it again. It would give the impression that we are thinking very far away.”
“We’re really happy with Harry. He’s really important for us, but we need to focus on the next game.”
Maguire has impressed with his performances this season and is undoubtedly a key player for them. It might be a wise decision to keep him at the club for a few seasons.
Manchester United need more quality and depth in their defensive unit and Maguire could be a useful option for them. He has the qualities, experience and leadership to help the team improve. He could be the ideal mentor for the club’s young players. He knows the league well and Manchester United may find it difficult to replace him.
Will Maguire leave the club?
On the other hand, defenders are unlikely to run out of options in front of him. It will be interesting to see if he decides to move forward in the coming months.
Manchester United are going through a period of rebuilding and are not yet at the level required to win major trophies. If Maguire has the chance to join a big club that can compete for trophies, he might be tempted.
Ideally, Manchester United should move quickly and aim to secure his availability for next season. Despite being in his 30s, Maguire still has a lot to offer.
