Harry Maguire has joined Manchester United, becoming the third signing of the summer after Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James. How will the England international fit into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Man United?

Man Utd have gone into the summer transfer window with the idea of rebuilding the defence. Signing Harry Maguire could be the final piece to Manchester United’s new look back four - lining up with Victor Lindelof, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw. After an impressive season from Victor Lindelof at centre-half - it looked like the red devils number one target this summer was to identify a fitting partner for the Swedish international. The signing of Leicester City’s player of the year is surely a step in the right direction for the reds.

Virgil van Dijk’s impact on Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side in the last two seasons, will certainly be what United want from Harry Maguire. If Man United manage to lock-down David De Gea’s contract, then they'll have a defence to work with for years to come - with the likes of Axel Tuanzebe and Eric Bailly who can challenge for places in the side too. Maguire seems a sensible signing in terms of what Man Utd are looking for right now. He’s a very well-rounded modern central defender, good age and seems to have that hunger that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his team are looking for in new players.

The England international could have a massive effect on the side going forward too - he’ll be key to the likes of Paul Pogba, Fred and Andreas Pereira not having to drop deep to pick the ball up. Harry Maguire’s passes into the final third could be a game changer for the likes of Mason Greenwood, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial - finding passes into the channels could be a huge bonus for United going forward. Jamie Vardy benefited from Harry Maguires long range passes from deep - The Englishmen averaged 6.2 long balls per game in the Premier League for Leicester City last season.
