Harry Maguire sends message to Man United fans after what happened at Fulham

Man United defender Harry Maguire shared a heartfelt message to the supporters after their underwhelming draw with Fulham.

Ruben Amorim’s side are still searching for their first league victory of the season after Man United were held to a 1-1 stalemate to Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Frustrations grew early on when Bruno Fernandes missed from the penalty spot after Mason Mount had been fouled by Calvin Bassey.

United eventually took the lead from a corner, with Leny Yoro rising highest before his header deflected off Rodrigo Muniz and into the net.

But Fulham hit back to rescue a point when Emile Smith Rowe converted from close range following a superb delivery from Alex Iwobi.

Maguire, who began the match on the bench, was introduced late on but was unable to make a decisive impact. Despite the disappointment, the defender made sure to dedicate a message to the travelling United supporters who backed the team throughout the afternoon.

The defender has become an important figure in Amorim’s side and has enjoyed a resurgence under the Portuguese manager since his arrival last year.

His performances were rewarded as Maguire signed a contract extension with Man United in January to prevent him leaving as a free agent this summer.

Reports now suggest that Maguire is set to sign another new deal at Man United, committing his future to the club and rejecting interest from elsewhere in the Premier League.

While he has yet to start either of United’s opening league fixtures, he remains a trusted and valued member of the squad.

Although United have integrated several new signings into the squad, they are yet to bring in a transfer fee for any departures this window.

Football Insider revealed that outcast Jadon Sancho must be moved on by Man United before the club can push ahead with their ambitious targets.

The winger’s sizeable wages have proved a stumbling block for interested clubs, even though advanced talks had taken place with Roma. Sancho now looks set to be among the players United could struggle to offload before the window closes.
