Manchester United will reportedly have to sell club captain Harry Maguire during this summer's transfer window in order to sign Monaco center-back Axel Disasi.
Maguire's future remains the subject of much speculation, with the 30-year-old widely expected to leave Old Trafford in the current market after dropping down the pecking order at the club. The center-back has received a salary increase this summer, though, which is making it more difficult for Manchester United to sell him despite a host of interest.
West Ham United and Newcastle United are among the Premier League clubs linked with Maguire. He only started eight times in England's top flight during the 2022–23 campaign. Man United head coach Erik ten Hag is believed to be keen to sign an additional central defender this summer. Monaco's Disasi is heavily linked with a switch to the club.

The Frenchman has featured on 129 occasions for his current side in all competitions, contributing 12 goals and four assists in the process. Disasi was in impressive form for Monaco during the 2022–23 season, featuring 49 appearances, contributing six goals and four assists. The principal club is in a strong position regarding the defender's future, with his current deal having another two years left to run.
Both Newcastle and Manchester United will be able to offer Champions League football nextseason. However, Disasi is believed to favor a move to Old Trafford over St. James' Park. Man United have made one signing during this summer's transfer window: Mason Mount from Chelsea. In addition, they are said to be closing in on a deal for Inter Milan's Andre Onana.
