If the right offer comes in for Maguire, they can let him go to raise a bit of money, and then use that money to sign some new players.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey want to refresh the squad and improve in key areas, including at centre-back, so it\u2019s possible that selling Maguire could allow them to do that. I think he would be a big miss if he was allowed to leave, and it would be shocking to me, but they\u2019re not ruling it out so it could happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding incomings, Man Utd have already struck a deal for Ederson Silva and they could sign two more midfielders, with West Ham United\u2019s Matheus Fernandes among their options.<\/p>\n<p>West Ham are audaciously demanding around \u00a380m for Fernandes, but Brown suspects he will end up leaving in a cut-price deal this summer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going to be hard for West Ham to keep Fernandes,\u201d Brown added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.football365.com\/news\/gary-neville-urges-man-utd-strike-transfer-gold-cole-palmer-signing\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gary Neville urges Man Utd to strike transfer \u2018gold\u2019 with \u00a380m-plus signing<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIdeally for them, they would keep hold of him and he\u2019d be a huge part of the team that gets them back up into the Premier League. But it\u2019s not as easy at that, it\u2019s extremely difficult when clubs get relegated and more often than not they\u2019re forced to let them go because they can\u2019t afford to keep them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m told they\u2019ve set a big price tag on Fernandes, but it\u2019s sticking to that price tag that\u2019s going to be a problem. He\u2019s not going to want to stick around in the Championship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was one of their best players in the Premier League and by all accounts did a very good job, so there\u2019s going to be top-level interest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the window goes on and it becomes clear he wants to move on, that price tag is going to drop, and a club like Man United could look to take advantage of that.
