Man Utd exclusive: Harry Maguire sale still a strong possibility as Ratcliffe names price and main suitors emerge

Manchester United are in for big changes this summer with Sir Jim Ratcliffe prepared to axe several stars to clear the path for a new era.

The INEOS chief is keen to sell unwanted players before sanctioning major incomings, although a £50m deal for Bayern Munich centre-back Matthijs de Ligt is getting closer.

West Ham keeping tabs on Man Utd star

Sources have confirmed to TEAMtalk that West Ham’s long-standing interest in Maguire remains and they are keeping a close eye on his situation.

They are entering their own new era under Julen Lopetegui and the former Real Madrid and Wolves boss has made signing a new centre-back one of his priorities.

The Hammers have just seen a £25m offer for Jean-Clair Todibo rejected, who, ironically, was a target for Man Utd before UEFA stepped in and said they couldn’t sign a Nice player, given they’re owned by INEOS and will also compete in the Europa League this season.
