Harry Maguire says he is hoping for a long and successful season with Manchester United after his Euro 2020 heartbreak.

Maguire was named in the team of the tournament following England's shootout loss to Italy in the final.

The Manchester United skipper told The Sun: "It is an individual award which is nice. But it is not the award that I wanted and what the team wanted.

"I'm really pleased with how it went for myself, especially after seven weeks out.

"You were getting people saying 'he should not even be in the squad' or 'he is not match-fit'.

"It was a race to get fit for that third game and I used a prototype therapy device to help me called ProMOTION EV1. I've constantly been using it on my ankle over the last month — it provides cold, heat and compression.

"It's portable so I've even used it in my sleep. Obviously, the England and United medics are the best and they too were integral to my recovery.

"I felt little bits of pain in the ankle, especially in my first couple of games. I felt it more then, than in the semi- final and final.

"The progress is really good. I'm getting bigger, better and stronger. When you have a niggly injury you will never be 100 per cent when you come back.

"There will always be a little bit of pain and I managed to put up with it really well in the first couple of games.

"I hope I am sitting here after Qatar in an even better place. In Russia we lost three games of football and won one on penalties.

"Now, I am hoping for a good, long season with Manchester United and then next year it is the World Cup."
