Harry Maguire has an agreement with a former owner of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, former owner of Leicester, that he may be leaving this summer.
And the defender and his advisers were informed that the club would honor that promise, even though they desperately wanted it to stay.
Manchester United are ready to pay £ 90m to attract the 26-year-old English star while Premier League champions Manchester City are reluctant to exceed £ 80m while looking for a replacement for the late captain , Vincent Kompany.
But although Leicester has resisted all of Maguire's sales offers last summer, the star will be allowed to leave this window.
Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, son of Vichai, who tragically died in a helicopter crash at City Stadium last October, told Maguire that the Fox would be true to their word – if their badessment is respected.
Maguire hopes to be transferred to City and have the chance to win several trophies under Pep Guardiola.
But City is eager to pay what would be their biggest expense for Maguire after creating a club record when they signed Riyad Mahrez of Leicester for £ 60 million last summer.
United, however, is suing Maguire and is willing to pay for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to reorganize his defense.
A source close to Maguire said: "United has been very aggressive in his pursuit of Harry. They made it clear that they wanted it and that they really wanted to take it. "
In addition to Maguire, Solskjaer wants Crystal Palace half-back, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, currently serving under-21 in England at the European Championships in Italy.
An offer of 40 million pounds was rejected and although they are willing to increase their offer, they will not go to the price of 60 million pounds claimed by Palace.
The Palace has everything for City to boast of £ 50 million on the right back Kyle Walker in 2017.
But by the time he went to Etihad, the former Spurs star, Walker was a seasoned international of 27 years with 27 caps in England.
Wan-Bissaka, 21, has still not won a maximum and United believes their offer is as good as the one Palace will get.
United is ready to trade defenders like Chris Smalling, Phil Jones and young Timothy Fosu-Mensah who has spent a season on loan at Selhurst Park in 2017.
But Palace is believed to want cash and is firmly committed to Wan-Bissaka's £ 60 million worth.
