Transfer splitter | Substitution confusion surrounding the cult defender

Harry Maguire is a cult figure in English football. Now there is a transfer confusion surrounding the national player. According to the British media, Maguire's expected move from Manchester United to West Ham United is in danger of falling through. As the Guardian newspaper and the PA news agency reported on Tuesday, the transfer, which was actually already considered certain, is now on hold. Because Maguire has not yet been able to agree on a severance payment with Man United, the Hammers are said to be looking for other players.

Last week it became known that the clubs had reached an agreement with each other. Conference League winner West Ham is said to be prepared to pay the equivalent of almost 35 million euros for the 30-year-old defender, who lost his regular place and captain's armband at Man United after mixed performances. Maguire and the Hammers also agreed.

However, the defender is reportedly pushing for a severance payment of around £8 million from Man United. Because the Red Devils qualified for the Champions League, he is said to have received a salary increase. By moving to West Ham, he would reportedly accept a significant reduction in salary.

A record transfer in England The transfer of Moises Caicedo has also caused a stir in England in recent days. The defensive midfielder moved from Brighton to Chelsea for an incredible transfer fee of around 135 million euros. The Blues thus outplayed Liverpool in the poker for the 21-year-old, who were prepared to transfer 127 million to Brighton. Never before has a Premier League team paid so much money for a new player.

Meanwhile, there has been a departure from Serie A record champions Juventus. Denis Zakaria will play for Monaco in the future. To do this, Marko Arnautovic signed up with a top club: the Austrian moved from Bologna to Inter for eight million euros (plus a two million euro bonus). Inter's Robin Gosens, on the other hand, will move to Union Berlin in the Bundesliga.
