Harry Maguire has marked a significant milestone in his Manchester United career, reaching 250 appearances for the club.
The England international, who joined United from Leicester City in 2019 for a then world-record fee for a defender, has experienced highs and lows during his time at Old Trafford, but his consistency and leadership have ensured he remains an important figure within the squad. Speaking on this achievement, Maguire expressed his pride and gratitude for the opportunity to represent the club at such a level.
“It’s a real special moment, to play 250 games for this club is a huge honour,” Maguire said. “I see it as the best club in the world, so I’m really lucky. To have been able to wear this shirt so many times is something I’ll always treasure.”
Maguire’s journey at United has not always been straightforward. From being made captain just months into his United career, to facing criticism and challenges over form and fitness, his resilience has defined him. His determination to fight for his place, even when left out of the starting XI at times, has earned him respect from teammates and fans alike. This landmark appearance underlines his commitment and ability to rise above adversity, while continuing to deliver on the pitch.
Over the course of his 250 games, Maguire has played in several memorable fixtures, including cup finals and intense Premier League clashes, and has contributed with crucial goals as well as his defensive solidity. While debates over his role have often surfaced, Maguire’s dedication to the badge has never been in doubt.
As he celebrates this milestone, Maguire will now be eager to add silverware to his tally, determined to help Manchester United return to the very top of English and European football.
