West Ham are being reported as having seen a £20 million bid for Manchester United central defender Harry Maguire rejected.
Various media outlets are reporting the Old Trafford snub which we made clear on here a few days ago along with the fact that the England defender did not want to move to the London Stadium.
It means of course another failed move by the Irons who have also missed out on Chelsea’s Conor Gallager and have seen a bid for James Ward-Prowse turned down by Southampton.
West Ham boss David Moyes is a big fan of Maguire – whose contract expires in 2025 – but as was the case with Jesse Lingard he looks like missing out.
Even had the former Leicester City player – sold for £80 million – his wages would have been a major issue for the Irons. Now we are are unlikely to go back in for him, unless his situation drastically changes.
