Manchester United have rejected a \u00a320m bid from West Ham for England defender Harry Maguire.<\/p>\n
Hammers boss David Moyes is keen on Maguire and has funds to spend following the \u00a3100m sale of England midfielder Declan Rice.<\/p>\n
Maguire\u2019s Old Trafford future is uncertain after he was\u00a0stripped of the captaincy by Erik ten Hag\u00a0earlier this month.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Dutchman has said the move could help the 30-year-old regain his form.<\/p>\n
United would be prepared to listen to offers that matched their valuation \u2013 if Maguire indicated a willingness to leave.<\/p>\n
However, the centre-back is believed to currently be earning \u00a3200,000-a-week at Old Trafford, which is significantly more than the highest earner at West Ham.<\/p>\n
Maguire was appointed skipper by Ten Hag\u2019s predecessor Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in January 2020 \u2013 five months after signing for \u00a380m from Leicester City.<\/p>\n
The England international, who has 57 international caps, said he was \u201cextremely disappointed\u201d to lose the armband but would \u201ccontinue to give my all\u201d in the shirt.<\/p>\n
Maguire played in 31 of the club\u2019s 62 matches in all competitions during the 2022-23 season, including eight Premier League starts, with Portuguese midfielder Bruno Fernandes captain in his absence.<\/p>\n
Maguire\u2019s contract at Old Trafford ends in 2025.<\/p>\n
Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez were favoured over him at the heart of United\u2019s defence last season, and when the latter was injured, Victor Lindelof deputised.<\/p>\n
England left-back Luke Shaw was also deployed at centre-back on several occasions by Ten Hag.<\/p>\n
