Harry Maguire’s leadership qualities have once again been put on display, and Manchester United fans are calling for him to be reinstated as captain. The centre-back returned to pre-season training this week, and his actions at Carrington have left many impressed.
Maguire, who was stripped of the captaincy around a year ago, was back at the club’s training ground, stepping up his injury recovery from a calf issue. While he didn’t travel with the squad for the pre-season friendly with Rosenborg, he was still in the building, and his presence had a significant impact on the younger players.
As shown in Manchester United’s ‘Unseen’ video on YouTube, Maguire was seen greeting every player with a handshake, welcoming them to the training session. This display of leadership and camaraderie has earned him praise from fans, who believe he should still be captain.
"Love Maguire dapping everyone up," wrote one fan. "Should still be captain," added another. A third commenter stated, "That’s why Harry Maguire was captain." Another fan simply commented, "Everybody’s captain."
Maguire’s leadership qualities have always been evident, and his ability to connect with his teammates is a key aspect of his character. His willingness to take the time to welcome the younger players and make them feel part of the team is a testament to his character.
Manchester United’s fans are not the only ones who believe Maguire should be captain. Many players have spoken highly of him, praising his leadership and ability to make them feel welcome. As one fan put it, "You always hear from many players in & around the squad how Maguire makes them feel welcoming & at home right away. This is a nice example of this in training this week greeting all the young lads. A class act & great leader."
Maguire’s first-team opportunities may be limited, but his impact on the team is undeniable. Whether he’s captain or not, he’s an important part of the Manchester United squad, and his leadership qualities are something that the team can benefit from.
