Harry Maguire has been a vital component in Manchester United’s squad this season as the Red Devils aim for a top four finish in the Premier League under Michael Carrick.

The 32-year-old, who joined United from Leicester City in the summer of 2019, has made over 250 appearances for the club in his six-year spell so far, scoring 17 times.

Meanwhile, the central defender has also given Red Devils supporters around the globe countless memories including his winner against Liverpool earlier this season and his last-gasp goal against Lyon last campaign in the Europa League.

However, his contract is set to expire this month, raising questions about a possible extension.

Meanwhile, with Maguire set for new contract talks with the club, it appears that progress may be made in the coming months.

But, it is not just his contract situation that the defender has had to contend with.

Against West Ham United, Harry Maguire appeared to injure his hamstring with a substitution in the 68th minute only further raising concerns.

Now, following Maguire giving an update himself on his update, supporters have received a major boost.

As seen on the official Manchester United website, Maguire has been training at Carrington and was seen on the grass as legendary United captain Bryan Robson watched on.

For Maguire, this moment arguably marks a huge positive in the defender’s chances of playing in the side’s upcoming clash with Everton in eight days.

Meanwhile, for Manchester United, having the 32-year-old training once again can be said to be a huge boost to the squad ahead of the encounter on the 23rd of February with the Toffees.

Now, supporters of United could look towards Michael Carrick to see if he can provide any updates on the defender’s condition as the clash with Everton approaches.
