Harry Maguire earned £450k in off-field earnings last year… but will top that in 2020 thanks to Man Utd transfer


HARRY MAGUIRE made more than £450,000 in off-field earnings last season — and that figure is set to rise significantly now he is at Manchester United.

HM 5 Limited, a company of which England defender Maguire and mum Zoe are directors, has submitted figures revealing assets including £758,708 in cash and an investment property bought for £137,915.

Maguire’s £190,000-per-week United package will include a decent whack of image rights payments, which are taxed at a lower rate than his wages.

Last month he signed a £700,000-per-year agreement to become an ambassador for Puma, after the firm beat off competition from Nike, Adidas and Under Armour.

Maguire has captained United this season when Ashley Young has not been picked by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

He is also expected to star for England at Euro 2020 after an impressive showing during the 2018 World Cup.

Meanwhile, United want to see if a buyer comes forward for Nemanja Matic next month before they choose to trigger their option to extend his contract.

The 31-year-old is in his final year and can walk away for nothing at the end of the season — with Juventus keen to take him if United do let him go for free.

But the Serbian midfielder cost £40million from Chelsea and United want to recoup at least some of that fee.

That means they will instigate the clause which extends out-of-favour Matic’s deal by 12 months.

United will ask for around £15million, though they would almost certainly accept slightly less if it means getting his £150,000-a-week wages off the books.
