In an interview with ex-Red Gary Neville on Sky Sports's The Football Show, the imposing defender was asked if he was happy with the choice he made to switch to Old Trafford during the 2019 close season.

“Yeah, definitely,” Maguire replied. “It's such a big club, an iconic club that, as soon as I knew Man United were interested, I was champing at the bit to get there. As soon as I came to the club, just the way the club is run, I was so happy at the decision.
