’s move to United is on the brink of collapse, with the defender’s transfer to the Stadium now looking ‘unlikely’.
accepted a £30million fee for the defender last week, and gave permission for him to travel to the capital for a medical.
David Moyes is desperate to complete the deal but Maguire will have to take a large paycut to join the Hammers and he reportedly wants United to pay up the rest of his two-year deal.
The 30-year-old is therefore minded to stay at Old Trafford and West Ham are ready to walk away from the deal, as time is running out for them to strengthen their squad.
United had already prepared to sign a replacement for Maguire by bidding for Bayern Munich star Benjamin Pavard.
Though Erik ten Hag has publicly said he’s happy to keep Maguire, he privately concedes the defender’s time at the club is at an end.
But Maguire has two years left on his £200,000-a-week deal and he hasn’t received an offer that has convinced him to leave the Theatre of Dreams.
Maguire was an unused substitute in United’s 1-0 win against Wolves at Old Trafford on Monday.
He was named in the matchday squad but watched on at half-time as Ten Hag turned to Victor Lindelof to replace Lisandro Martinez.
