Solskjaer admits Man Utd must sell defender to make Maguire room

Manchester United are prepared to sell a defender to make room for Harry Maguire.

The Sun says United will sell one centre-back if they land £80m Leicester City star Maguire.

Eric Bailly, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Marcos Rojo, Axel Tuanzebe and Victor Lindelof are sweating over their futures as Maguire nears an Old Trafford move.

United will be left with no less than SEVEN central defenders if a deal goes over the line.

And Solskjaer will sell at least one of them if World Cup semi-finalist Maguire is confirmed as a Red.

He said: “Of course, there's a limit of players. Whoever performs will be part of the team and whoever doesn't has a fight to get back in.

“There's been loads of speculation but I can't really say anything. We'll work to find a relationship with the ones we've got."
