Man Utd Star In Talk’s With Leicester City Over Season Long-Loan
Leicester City are reportedly eyeing-up a ‘homecoming’ loan move for Harry Maguire next season.
The foxes gained promotion back to the Premier league just after one season in the championship and were crowned champions.
Leicester city seek to bolster their backline for the upcoming season to remain afloat in the Premier league. A move for Maguire on loan as been deemed a perfect solution this summer.
Maguire – who moved to the King Power Stadium from Hull City for £17m in 2017 – was a huge hit for the Foxes, as he racked up 76 appearances over two seasons and developed into a talisman at the heart of their defence.
He was sold to Manchester United for £80m in 2019 which made him the world’s most expensive defender.
The report states the defender left the East Midlands on good terms four years ago, with Maguire departing with the club’s blessing, while he remains popular with supporters.
The defender’s contract expires in the summer of 2025 which means a loan deal would work for all parties, but United are likely to try and get any club to cover his full salary to ease the financial hit they take – which could pose a problem for Leicester.
