Leicester have turned down Manchester United’s £70 million bid for England international Harry Maguire.

But Leicester have made it clear they are not interested in selling at that price, especially after seeing United pay £50m for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who they feel cannot compare to Maguire in proven international quality and experience.
