Sky Sports Pundit Urges Liverpool to Move for £65m-Rated World Cup Star Despite Man Utd Interest

Liverpool legend and Sky Sports pundit Phil Thompson has called upon the club's hierarchy to show a statement of intent by signing Manchester United target Harry Maguire.

Maguire was a rock at the back for England during the World Cup, playing a crucial role as the Three Lions made it all the way to the semi finals.

His performances caught the attention of United boss Jose Mourinho, who is keen to sign the defender. The only problem for the Red Devils being that Leicester reportedly value Maguire at £65m.

However, speaking for Sky Sports, former European Cup winner Phil Thompson has called upon Liverpool to snatch the 25-year-old from United's grasp.
