Leicester City defender Harry Maguire is eager to see his move to Manchester United settled.

The two clubs were locked in talks late last night with United ready to agree a fee.

The Sun says Maguire, 26, missed training yesterday for the second time this summer but maintains he had a stomach bug and is expected back today.

United, having had a 70million offer turned down, are now attempting to seal a world-record fee for a defender topping Liverpool's 75m for Virgil van Dijk

And Maguire believes Foxes vice-chairman Khun 'Top' Srivaddhanaprabha is being awkward regarding the deal with United especially as he felt he kept his part of the bargain by acting professionally.

Maguire had a gentleman's agreement with the club last year, after signing a new deal, they would not stand in his way with a fair offer this summer with United having also tried to sign him in 2018.
