Maguire Expected to Exit Man United for Saudi Pro League on Free Transfer

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire, who joined the club in 2019 for a record £80 million fee for a defender, is nearing the end of his contract in June 2026 with no indication of renewal from the club. United activated a 12-month extension last summer without consulting Maguire, who has expressed uncertainty about his future but remains appreciative of the club. Saudi Pro League clubs Al-Nassr, where former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo plays, and Al-Ettifaq have shown interest in signing Maguire, offering him a potentially lucrative final contract as his England career fades. Maguire will be free to negotiate with foreign clubs starting January 1, and Manchester United is reportedly preparing for the future by unlikely to offer him new terms. At 32, with just six Premier League appearances this season and having been left out of recent England squads, a move abroad could provide financial security and a fresh challenge. This potential transfer marks a significant shift for Maguire, once a mainstay in both Manchester United’s and England’s defense.
