Sutton believes that’s a fee worth paying for the best defender in England, who has shown what he can do at the highest level and who clearly looks a major upgrade on the options they had before in that position.
The Red Devils were poor last season as they failed to win a trophy whilst only finishing sixth in the Premier League with a total of 54 goals conceded in 38 matches – their worst record in that department in the Premier League era.
While some have questioned if Maguire is really worth so much money, Sutton probably just about gets it right as he explains it’s going to end up being well worth it for United.
