Man Eye and his rivals City eye, Harry Maguire, transferred but pushed back by the world record of £ 80 million in Leicester asking price

HARRY MAGUIRE is a summer target for the two giants of Manchester.

But there are fears that Leicester could dissuade him from claiming £ 80 million, a world record for a defender.

Manchester City president Pep Guardiola is to replace Vincent Kompany.

While United's boss, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, wants the English star as part of his summer redesign.

Maguire is in Portugal with England and a source of Three Lions said the defender feared it would not happen because of the price.

The Foxes are looking for fees likely to break the current record for a defender, the £ 75 million that Liverpool paid to Southampton for Virgil van Dijk.

Guardiola would rather sign a left foot but was impressed by Maguire, 26.

The price charged by Leicester is also a problem.

The cities have enormous resources, but their spending is reasonable and their record purchase is the £ 60 million they gave to the Foxes for Riyadh Mahrez last summer.

United is also putting an end to prestigious signatures such as Angel Di Maria and Paul Pogba.

Solskjaer wants Executive Vice President Ed Woodward to focus on hungry players with the potential to improve rather than the finished article.

Maguire belongs to the category of local players who can improve at United, but he will have to find a compromise to make him move.

The player wants to operate at the highest level possible, although he starts in Europa League with United.
