Manchester United has triggered the option to extend Harry Maguire’s contract by one year (31 years old, 16 appearances, and 1 goal across all competitions this season). This unexpected decision has pleased Patrice Evra.
Evra is backing Maguire. The English defender, who was expected to leave just a few weeks ago, has seen his future completely revitalized under the new coach, Ruben Amorim. He is back in action.
This decision has particularly delighted Patrice Evra, who believes Maguire deserves to wear the captain’s armband again. “Give the armband back to Harry Maguire! He has shown resilience and leadership,” the former Red Devils defender stated on Instagram.
Currently, the armband is worn by Bruno Fernandes, who has struggled to find his best form and has been sent off three times this season. Will Ruben Amorim take the risk of changing the captain?
