Wolves could be in the frame to sign Manchester united defender Harry Maguire this summer.
The England international has lost prominence at Old Trafford since Erik ten Hag came in as manager last year.
Maguire had been a firm favourite under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, despite a number of error-strewn performances.
But Dutchman ten Hag has come in and demoted Maguire to the bench.
He’s preferred the likes of Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof in his backline.
Maguire’s lack of minutes has led to speculation about a possible exit from the club. And apparently there could be a chance for Wolves to make a move.
Wolves named ‘dark horses’ to sign Manchester United defender Harry Maguire
CBS Soccer journalist Ben Jacobs has been speaking about Maguire’s future to The United Stand.
He said: “I would actually keep an eye on Wolves. One dark horse for Maguire.
“Even though he has not had as good a season this season as the season before, Max Kilman is being looked at by a variety of clubs, so Wolves could lose a centre-back, and that might open the possibility later in the window for them to look at a player like Maguire.
“He is on their radar as well. There are going to be offers for Maguire.”
It is a claim Jacobs first made earlier this year, and he clearly believes Wolves have genuine interest.
Wolves could very possibly lose Kilman this summer.
The club need to balance the books and player sales are required.
The 26-year-old is one of the most saleable assets at the club, and apparently Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United are both keen.
Harry Maguire could be good for Wolves, but it would depend on what kind of deal
Maguire’s reputation has taken a real battering over the last two years or so.
He definitely needs to leave United because he is not in favour there and it just doesn’t seem like the right fit for him.
It is interesting to hear that Wolves could be dark horses to sign Maguire.
If Kilman is sold then potentially he could be someone decent to bring in. It could be a fresh start for Maguire, and there would be potential for him to be as good as he was at Leicester since the spotlight would be far less harsh.
But it really depends on how much United would want for him.
And one potentially very big stumbling block would be the wages. Maguire takes home around £190,000-a-week.
