Manchester United have signed England centre‑back Harry Maguire from Premier League rivals Leicester City for 80 million pounds ‑ a world record fee for a defender.

Maguire says when Manchester United come knocking on your door, it is an incredible opportunity.

The 26‑year‑old has agreed a six‑year contract at Old Trafford, with the option of a further year.

The fee for Maguire eclipses the 75 million pounds Liverpool paid Southampton for Virgil van Dijk in January 2018.
