Maguire and his family are settled in the north-west, United valued the 33-year-old's experience, a factor that has taken on more importance this summer given the impending exit of Casemiro. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was determined to sign Maguire from Leicester in 2019, which is why United ended up paying £80m for him. With Maguire, critics tend to focus on the aspects of his game he is not so good at. His managers – generally – look at what he can do: Calm under pressure, strong in the tackle, good passing range, positional awareness, superb mentally, a leader in the dressing room. However, it is also possible Maguire could earn more next season than this if United qualify for the Champions League.
