West Ham has submitted an enhanced bid of £30 million for Manchester United and England's central defender, Harry Maguire.
West Ham have made an improved £30 million bid for Manchester United and England centre-back Harry Maguire, according to reports.
The Hammers have been linked with Maguire throughout the summer but a previous £20 million offer was rejected.
Maguire, 30, fell down the pecking order at Old Trafford last season and was recently replaced as captain by manager Erik ten Hag.
United, however, have always maintained that Maguire remains an important member of their squad and would be happy for him to stay and fight for his place.
Maguire, who joined United for £80 million in 2019, faces competition from Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof for a spot in the side.
West Ham, meanwhile, have also been linked with a move for Maguire's United team-mate Scott McTominay.
