• Defender’s deal expires in summer with one-year option
• Maguire dedicates derby win to fans after ‘difficult’ start

Harry Maguire is discussing a new contract with Manchester United that would commit him to at least a seventh and eighth season at the club.

The 31-year-old’s terms expire in June, with United holding an option for a further 12 months. If the centre-back agrees a new deal it would represent a remarkable turnaround after he lost the captaincy when Erik ten Hag was the manager and he nearly joined West Ham in summer 2023.
