Maguire awaits contract decision as Man United weigh future options

Manchester United are contemplating the future of Harry Maguire, whose current contract is set to expire in June 2025, with the club holding an option to extend his stay by an additional year.
Despite falling out of favour under previous manager Erik ten Hag, Maguire's prospects may improve with the new manager Ruben Amorim, who is interested in a three-at-the-back formation that could suit the England international.
The 31-year-old defender has made ten appearances across all competitions this season, starting just six times in the Premier League before a recent injury.
United's primary motivation for potentially extending Maguire's contract appears to be financial prudence, with the club eager to avoid losing the defender on a free transfer after initially investing £80 million in his signing.
The club is reportedly willing to listen to transfer offers in the January window, with West Ham and Newcastle previously showing interest. Maguire's future may ultimately depend on Amorim's assessment of his capabilities and the defensive needs of the team.
