Former Germany coach Jurgen Klinsmann concedes Manchester United captain Harry Maguire is a feared character ahead of England's last 16 clash.

The two rivals will square off at Wembley in the Euro 2020 knockouts with the winner looking a good bet to make the final.

England have so far underwhelmed despite winning two of their three group games but the Germans themselves have been inconsistent.

Klinsmann said: “You have Raheem Sterling, and you have Mason Mount. You have now Saka who played a good game against the Czech Republic.

"You have Phil Foden, who I really adore — I thought he had a brilliant year with Man City.

"You have Harry Maguire, who kind of frightens everybody when this guy rolls through midfield. He reminds me a bit of Lucio, the Brazilian centre-back — he looks like a Mustang running through everybody.

"And then you have this No 9 killer that hasn't started the tournament yet."
