Blues set to battle Tottenham for Maguire

Everton have joined Tottenham in the race to sign Hull City defender Harry Maguire, according to the Sunday Mirror.

The club are looking to bolster up their defensive options as Ronald Koeman prepares for his second season at Goodison Park.

After relegation from the Premier League, Hull City’s top players will be looking to regain their top flight status at other clubs.

In what was a disappointing season for the Tigers, Maguire emerged as an exciting prospect at the back and now that Marco Silva has left his managerial position for Watford, Maguire will be looking for assurance as to where his future lies.

Maguire possesses the ability to score at one end of the pitch and defend effectively at the other. His 6 foot 1 inch frame immediately presents an aerial threat, and he scored 3 goals in all competitions during the 2016/17 season.

There is no doubt as to whether the young defender would be a good signing for Everton, the only question is – can they win the race for him?

matchday.
