£15m? More?
I think 7-10 million at the moment. Potentially double that if he keeps on growing.
His lack of pace unfortunately caps his ceiling a little in my opinion.
Obviously I love him and he’s one of the most commanding centre backs we have had in years.
Harry Maguire is one of the slowest centre halves ever. Didn’t Man United pay about £80m for him?
Maguire is/was a great traditional centre back who is very confident on the ball.
Putting him in a high line was always going to be a disaster and Man United massively overpaid for the privilege.
Unfortunately being able to win headers, being good in a tackle and reading the game well aren’t the only criteria for a good centre back these days.
Sought after centre backs at the top level are mobile and pretty quick as well as confident on the ball with decent passing range.
Like I said in my first point - I love Klarer and he’s great for us. But his lack of pace would be a potential issue for anyone looking at a new centre back.
