Footage of Harry Maguire's training regime at a private training camp in Portugal has emerged. Fans are impressed with his progress ahead of the upcoming campaign.
The 30-year-old defender, who made just eight Premier League starts last season, has been working with former Chelsea centre-back Ricardo Carvalho as part of an intense training programme.
In fact, for the past three weeks, Maguire has trained three times a day as he attempts to resurrect his United career. Maguire reportedly wants to stay and fight for his place at Old Trafford amid future speculation. And the England international clearly wants to make a statement in the coming months as he continues to work hard in Portugal.
Talks around Maguire's future continue to swirl but according to the Manchester Evening News, United have valued the defender at £50 million – a figure that is "highly unlikely" to be offered by a club.
One said: "Greatest comeback in football history incoming," while another wrote: "Would love nothing more than for him to properly re-establish himself." A third wrote: "Toxic Man Utd fans will be annoyed at this but how can you hate someone for putting their head down and working hard to get back into the team? No toxic interviews. No bitching in the press. No stinky attitude Just straight grind. Head down, grind on. Respect."
A fourth said: "Nice to see that he’s working hard to improve. Last year we seen Wan-Bissaka improve immensely and deservedly fight his way back into the team. So let’s see how this man does."
A fifth added: "All the hatred this man gets, he puts everything into his club and country. He may have been off form last year, which is why ETH dropped him, but he hasn't given up. Hopefully, he will be a monster at the back this season or next."
A number of clubs have been linked with a move for Maguire this summer, including Spurs, who have contacted Manchester United over a potential transfer. The Daily Mail claim the North London club, now managed by Ange Postecoglou, 'made checks' on the defender's current situation ahead of a possible bid.
The report added that Postecoglou will play a key role in recruitment this summer. Thoughts on Maguire's future? Do you think Erik ten Hag should give the centre-back another chance to impress this season?
