REUTERS: Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has described their England centre back Harry Maguire as a"special player" they do not want to lose but conceded they have no choice after Manchester United met the Midlands club's valuation.
The deal would make Maguire the most expensive defender in the world, surpassing the 75 million pounds Liverpool paid Southampton for Dutch international Virgil van Dijk last year. Last year Maguire, who helped England reach the World Cup semi-finals, signed a contract extension at Leicester until 2023. He played 31 league games last term, scoring three goals.
