The majority of the team felt it would have been &#8220;insane&#8221; if the experienced defender had not been offered a new contract. The 33-year-old went through a difficult period under Erik ten Hag and Ruben Amorim, but has regained popularity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p data-mce-linkchecker-status=\"valid\">The centre-back, who joined United from Leicester for \u00a380 million, has proven to be an influential leader under manager Michael Carrick. Maguire has set the standard for his team-mates, who are reportedly pushing hard for the England international to sign a new contract. A source told The Sun earlier this year: &#8220;The players think it would be crazy if he wasn&#8217;t offered a new contract.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;Harry has endured a lot of ups and downs at United, but he&#8217;s come through it all and played really well. He&#8217;s highly respected in the dressing room and passes on a lot of knowledge to young players like Aiden Haven and Lenny Yolo.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;Everyone likes and respects him and the majority of players want the club to sign him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Express sports on FB! Get all the best sports news and more on our Facebook page<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Reports emerged that AC Milan were interested in Maguire during the January transfer window.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>But speculation over his future has finally come to an end after the defender agreed a new contract with United last week. His previous contract was scheduled to expire at the end of this season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Maguire said: &#8220;It&#8217;s great. Obviously, it&#8217;s my seventh year. To be at this club, to play one game for this club, it&#8217;s really special. So it&#8217;s been seven years here and it&#8217;s going to be eight years and I&#8217;m really looking forward to it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;The focus now is to finish the season big and strong to put us in a good position going into next year. And we have to make next year better, more positive and more special. I&#8217;m really looking forward to it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"photo changeSpace\">\n<p class=\"withoutCaption\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/6862101.jpg?r=1776181855020\" alt=\"Manchester United's Harry Maguire celebrates.\" title=\"Manchester United's Harry Maguire celebrates.\" width=\"590\" height=\"382\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"newsCaption\">Harry Maguire has signed a new contract with Manchester United. <span class=\"caption\">(Image: Getty Images)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Maguire&#8217;s new contract will give him a warm welcome in the senior dressing room as he secures a return to European football next season. United&#8217;s resurgence under Carrick has been extraordinary for supporters, with the club firmly in the hunt for Champions League qualification.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>World Cup Legends: The stars of soccer&#8217;s biggest tournament in history &#8211; buy the special edition now<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Maguire believes the team has turned a corner and believes 2026\/27 will be a &#8220;special year&#8221; for the club.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>He added: &#8220;I feel we are in a good place at the moment. I believe the club is on a forward curve and I want to be part of that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;When I leave the club, I want to leave in a good place and that&#8217;s the most important thing.

It&#8217;s about the team and the club and I want to leave in a good place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>&#8220;If we continue to work hard and recruit well in the summer, we feel like next season could be a special year. We have a big summer ahead of us, but like I said, we want to focus on this year and make sure we&#8217;re in a good position for next year and make next year a special year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"whatsapp-group \">        Join us on WhatsApp for the latest Man United news<\/p>\n<p class=\"wapp-inf\">Our community members may receive special offers, promotions, and advertisements from us and our partners.
