Brendan Rodgers warns Manchester United and Man City after transfer of Harry Maguire

Leicester boss, Brendan Rodgers, has issued another warning to all potential buyers of Harry Maguire, insisting that he does not need to sell his central defender.

Manchester United is interested in a move for the English international but it was said that he would have to pay record fees for a defender.

MEN Sport understands that United has already seen a loss of 70 million pounds for Maguire, while Man City was also excited about the 26-year-old trying to replace the late captain, Vincent Kompany.

But Rodgers says Leicester has no financial obligation to sell its best badets. After appointing the player's badessment by the Foxes, he decided to warn the contenders to Maguire.

"Financially, the game has totally changed," he said. "Not just in this country, but throughout Europe.This is the way the game has evolved.A lot of teams, not just the big ones, have financial resources, some of which are owned by the property and combined with the cash available in the game through TV and the like.

"What interests me is Leicester and we are in an ideal position where we have owners quite brilliant, ambitious but not unrealistic. They know that to develop something, you need stability, growth and improvement from year to year. That's what we are trying to do. "

Leicester ranks among the top six following Rodgers' appointment in March of this year, but the Fox are ambitious.

This could mean that they keep Maguire, although it is understood that the player is interested in a move to United or City. United has made this player their first defensive target, with boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer preferring to recruit local talent this summer and badistant Mike Phelan, a big fan of Maguire who worked with him in Hull.

But Rodgers added, "I repeat, Harry does not have to be sold. We do not have to sell it to get money, and that is the beauty of this club. It's in an excellent financial position.

"There is still a little time to get into the window, but for now, we're pretty relaxed as a club.

"Through third parties, many speculations have occurred on different offers and medical examinations. But it's not nearly as active as that. There were two clubs, one candidacy each and that was the case. Apart from that, Harry works and works well. "
