Leicester prepared to sell Harry Maguire

Leicester City are prepared to sell Harry Maguire this summer.

The Mirror says Maguire struck a gentleman's agreement with former Leicester owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha that he could leave this summer.

And the defender and his advisors have been told the club will honour that promise – even though they desperately want him to stay.

Manchester United are willing to go to £90million to land the 26-year-old England star while Premier League champions Manchester City are reluctant to go beyond £80million as they hunt a replacement for departed captain Vincent Kompany.

But while Leicester resisted all bids to sell Maguire last summer the star will be allowed to leave in this window.
