Harry Maguire could miss Manchester United’s clash against rivals Manchester City when the two giants lock horns this weekend.

City scheduled to host the Red Devils on Sunday, October 2, for the first Manchester derby of the 2022|23 season at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester United have to contend with the absence of Maguire during the vital clash after the England international appeared to have picked up an injury.

The center back, who has come under immense pressure in the recent days, was spotted limping off the pitch during his side’s nation league encounter with Germany.

Maguire’s latest blow comes at a time he is fighting to win over Erik ten hag’s faith at old Trafford.

The United defender has lost his place in the first team, with Ten Hag preferring the partnership of Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez at the heart of his defense.
