Nemanja Vidic reckons there is plenty more to come from Harry Maguire after ‘a pretty good start’ at Manchester United.

Maguire was was one of three summer signings made by United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with the England centre-back costing £80m and arriving alongside Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James.

Maguire has started all five of the Red Devils’ Premier League games so far this season – keeping two clean sheets in the process – and, speaking to Goal, former United defender Vidic said that he will turn out to be a good signing for the club.

“I think he’s had a pretty good start. Obviously we have big expectations of him, he was a big signing,” the 37-year-old said. “We need the defence to improve, we all know how important the defence is in winning trophies.

“If you want to win trophies, you need to have a strong defence, don’t lose many goals. Obviously he’s still new.

“He just came, he didn’t have a pre-season with the team. I think better games are coming from him and I think he’ll be a good signing.”
