Manchester United captain Harry Maguire is pushing for the club's young players to learn more about the history of the club.

The Sun says there is a growing feeling among senior stars in the Premier League that younger players have little interest in past results and achievements, so Maguire has told them they should make use of lockdown to read up on United's history.

He wants them to focus on the era of Sir Alex Ferguson and watch as many documentaries as possible.

England defender Maguire's screen recommendations to players this week are the Sky documentary on Denis Law called Lawman and The Three Kings film, which tells the story of former boss Matt Busby along with fellow Scots Jock Stein and Bill Shankly.

When he signed from Leicester for £85million, Maguire told boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer that he was determined to be United captain and would take the role extremely seriously.

He was appointed as skipper 12 months ago after Ashley Young left for Inter Milan.

Maguire has since developed a strong friendship with United legend Bryan Robson, who has spoken at length about his role as club skipper.
