According to the Manchester Evening News, The Mirror and other media reports, Manchester United intend to sign Chelsea centre-back Rudiger, and Tenghach will deprive Maguire of his captain's armband and main position after taking office.
This season, United have conceded 44 goals in the Premier League, equalling last season's goals conceded and expected to surpass the 2018-19 season (54 goals) and thus set the worst goal conceded in nearly 40 years.
To address defensive issues, United signed Varane in the 2021 summer window. The French centre-back has performed well in most of the season, but he has also missed 15 games with injury.
It is worth mentioning that in the summer window of 2021, Varane is United's number one target, while another target is Villarreal centre-back Torres, who has performed well this season to help the Yellow Submarine reach the final four of the Champions League and become the main centre-back of the Spanish national team.
As Captain of Manchester United, Maguire plummeted after the European Championship and experienced a disastrous season, with Lindelof also performing mediocrely. The Manchester Evening News revealed that after Tenhach took over the team, Maguire's captain's armband may be stripped away. Not only that, but Maguire is also likely to lose his main position next season. According to the media, Manchester United will send away two fringe centre-backs, Bailey and Phil Jones, in the summer window.
The Manchester Evening News revealed that United had been in contact with Rudiger's agent to talk about the possibility of a transfer in the Chelsea centre-back summer window. However, Rudiger prefers to join a club that can play in the Champions League.
The Mirror analyzed that if Tenhach decided to change the captain and snub Maguire, then Glazer's provision of funds for Solskjaer to sign Maguire proved to be a rather bad decision.
In 2019, United signed Maguire from Leicester City for a transfer fee of £80 million, making the latter the world's most expensive centre-back. Speaking at Maguire's induction ceremony, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said, "He is one of the best centre-backs in the world. He is good at reading games, has a strong presence on the pitch and is able to stay calm under pressure. ”
However, just 3 years later, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's decision was considered wrong. Even if he can't sign Rudiger, Maguire is likely to lose his place.
The Mirror revealed that Tenhach has set his own reinforcement targets, and the five players he hopes to sign are all under-22 players, including Brazilian winger Anthony, 22, and Dutch centre-back Tinbert, 20, both of whom play for Ajax and are called Tenghach's concubines.
United also want to sign 19-year-old Everton defender Blisvet, 21-year-old River Plate midfielder Enzo Fernandez and 22-year-old Monaco midfielder Joan Ameni.
