Faced with his possible permanence, impossible task that ten Hag assigns to Maguire

The fact is that Erik ten Hag wants to make sure that Harry Maguire leaves the team in this transfer window, and if he does not manage to do that he would face a complicated challenge.

Erik ten Hag wants to make sure that Harry Maguire leaves the team in this transfer window for two main reasons, one being the fact that he is not going to take into account the english defender at all for the next season and the other reason being that he could really help increasing the budget, and now if things change he has a challenge for the defender.

The other fact seems to be that Harry Maguire does not want to leave the team in this transfer window, while the defender tries to fight for a position in the team for the next season, he also knows that a move would mean that he would need to drop his salary at least by half if he arrives to any other team in the transfer window.

Now Ten Hag decided to say the following, “He has to show that he is better for the team than Raphael (Varane) or Victor (Lindelof). I think that is a really normal situation on top football.” and the message seems clear, if he wants to stay he needs to perform better than two of the best defenders that the team currently has on the squad.

Harry Maguire offers

Currently it does seem that the only real offer that Harry Maguire has on the table is the one from West Ham, but the team from London only values him at 20 million euros, while the red devils are expecting to get at least 40 million euros for the defender in this transfer window.
