Harry Maguire Signs New Manchester United Deal Until 2027
Manchester United defender Harry Maguire has signed a new contract that will keep him at Old Trafford until June 2027, with an option for a further year, the club has confirmed. The 33-year-old’s extension follows a strong run of form under interim manager Michael Carrick and marks a significant vote of confidence from the club in the England international.
Maguire, who joined United from Leicester City in 2019 for a reported £80 million, has made 266 appearances and scored 17 goals for the Red Devils. Despite earlier criticisms and challenges, he has regained his place in the starting lineup, helping United strengthen their defense and compete for top Premier League positions. His performances since January have also earned him a recall to the England national team.

Speaking about the contract, Maguire said, “Representing Manchester United is the ultimate honor. I am delighted to extend my journey at this incredible club and continue to play in front of our special supporters. The ambition and potential of this squad are clear, and I am confident our best moments are still ahead.”
Jason Wilcox, Manchester United’s director of football, praised Maguire’s leadership, resilience, and professionalism, noting that his experience is invaluable to a squad blending youth and ambition. Reports indicate that the new deal includes revised terms reflecting his current role and contributions to the team.
Maguire’s extension ensures that Manchester United retains one of their most experienced defenders as they aim to compete for domestic trophies and European success in the coming seasons. The contract includes an option to extend to 2028, giving the club flexibility while securing a key figure in their defensive line.
This renewal comes after a challenging period in Maguire’s career, which included being named club captain, losing the armband, and facing scrutiny from fans and media. His recent resurgence under Carrick, combined with leadership on and off the pitch, has helped solidify his place at the club for the foreseeable future.
