Maguire's strong performance throughout the 2025/26 season did not earn him a spot on Thomas Tuchel's World Cup squad, which was a surprise. However, the news that Manchester United may be considering selling him to Inter Milan may be more concerning for the player.

According to reports, intermediaries have offered Maguire to Inter, despite him signing a contract extension with Manchester United until the end of the 2026/27 season. This move may be driven by the desire to recoup a fee for Maguire, rather than losing him for free in the future.

Considering Maguire's importance to the team, it's puzzling to see Manchester United contemplate selling him. His defensive skills and leadership have been crucial to the team's success, as seen in his crucial intervention at Anfield against Liverpool.

It's worth noting that Maguire had previously been linked with a move to West Ham under Erik ten Hag, but he chose to stay and work his way back into the team. This decision showcased his confidence in his abilities and his desire to prove himself at Manchester United.

Maguire's recent form, despite some inconsistencies, has made him arguably the most reliable centre-back at the club. His numbers in the 2025/26 season speak for themselves, demonstrating his value to the team.
