Manchester United have been quoted a staggering fee to sign Leicester City defender Harry Maguire, according to reports.

The Foxes have made their intention to keep hold of their star defender clear by handing the Red Devils a jaw-dropping quote.

Reports from the Daily Star claim that City have told Manchester United it will take £90 million to prise Harry Maguire away from the East Midlands.

The Foxes reportedly told United it would cost them £75 million after his impressive World Cup last summer.

And after the defender signed a five-year deal last summer, that valuation has now been raised.

The current record fee for a defender stands at £75 million, which is what Liverpool paid Southampton for Virgin van Dijk last summer.

If Maguire was to move to Manchester United for a fee beyond that figure, he would become the most expensive defender in history, creating a world record.

It would also be a club record fee for United, whose current record stands at £89 million, which was spent to secure Paul Pogba's return from Juventus.
