Harry Maguire: New Man Utd Deal, World Cup & Letter From Sir Alex | My Best Coach

This episode of My Best Coach with Harry Maguire is produced in partnership with Gillette. Ian Wright sits down with Harry Maguire and his dad, Alan, who played an instrumental role in his career. The Manchester United centre-back reveals what Michael Carrick is really like in the dressing room and the impact he has made this season. They look back on Harry’s journey from being coached by his dad to an £80 million move to one of the biggest clubs in world football, including whether the pressure of that transfer fee affected him. Harry Maguire also opens up on one of the toughest periods of his career, becoming the focus of online abuse that impacted both his dad and his family. Together, they discuss what happened behind the scenes and how he came through it. The conversation also covers Harry Maguire’s contact from José Mourinho, losing the Manchester United captaincy, signing a new deal, and his 2026 FIFA World Cup dreams.
