3 possible signings for Manchester United this summer

#2 Harry Maguire

Maguire in action against Belgium

This transfer gossip was surely coming. International tournaments always throw up surprise heroes and surprise performances. While it hasn't come home for England, no shock is bigger than the remarkable rise of Maguire who has gone from unlikely outsider in this England team to fans’ favourite.

Maguire was a formidable presence in the heart of Southgate's 3 man defense, and was clinical with his clearances as well as his passing range, not to forget his aerial threat in the opponent's box.

The 25-year-old proved to be a threat on both ends of the pitch, and Leicester City stand a chance of making massive profit on the £17 million they paid Hull City for their star one year ago.

His enormous presence makes him an incredibly difficult player to mark in the opposition box, and as for his defensive work - not many strikers have got past him and lived to tell the tale.

Maguire looks a player who could represent a major upgrade on United’s current defensive options, with the club linked with new potential signings in that position for some time now. If the rumours are true and United do get their man, it will definitely be for a record fee, given the player's impressive run at the World Cup.

However it will be money well spent, as his acquisition would solve the defensive issues of the club for years to come.
