Arsenal and Chelsea have joined Premier League rivals Manchester United in the race to sign England and Leicester City defender Harry Maguire, according to reports.

Maguire emerged as a top target for the Red Devils last summer and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is said to be keen to revive United’s interest in the 26-year-old at the end of the season.

Manchester United, who will finish outside of the top four in the Premier League, have already shipped more than 50 goals this term and Solskjaer believes defensive reinforcements are needed.

Maguire could be set to make his final appearance for Leicester when the Foxes entertain Chelsea on Sunday but the England man may not be heading to Old Trafford.




The Sun say United face substantial competition to sign Maguire, with Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham all eyeing a summer move for his signature.

Gunners boss Unai Emery has made a top-class defender his priority signing at the Emirates, while Maurizio Sarri is also keen to bolster his defensive options.

But that will only be possible if the Blues successfully get their transfer ban suspended by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

Tottenham have also expressed interest in signing Maguire, with Toby Alderweireld expected to leave Spurs at the end of the season.

Leicester are reluctant to sell Maguire, who they signed from Hull City two years ago, but will be tempted to cash in if a £60million offer is presented.

Speaking last month, Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers said he was ‘prepared’ for Manchester United to revive their interest in Maguire.

‘They may well come in,’ admitted Rodgers. ‘You always have to prepared for that moment as a club.

It happens but at this moment in time, I’m thinking about the team, and making it the best that we can. It doesn’t worry me.’
