Manchester United have turned down an approach from Everton to sign Harry Maguire on loan.

The defender is surplus to requirements at Old Trafford, despite Erik ten Hag’s public declarations.
United accepted a £30m offer from West Ham earlier in the month, only for Maguire to reject a move to the London Stadium.
Maguire hasn’t played a single minute of United’s Premier League campaign so far, and he was stripped of the club captaincy in July.
United curbed plans to sign Bayern Munich ace Benjamin Pavard following Maguire’s decision to reject a move to the Hammers, and the Red Devils are unable to sanction a deal for a defender without selling Maguire.
That’s the reason the club have rejected a loan approach from Everton, with United making it clear they will only listen to permanent offers for Maguire.
Sean Dyche is keen to bolster his defence after an alarming start to the season, which has seen the Toffees lose their opening three matches.
But the club are unlikely to have the £30m required to persuade United to part with Maguire and, in any case, it’s unlikely that the defender would be willing to move to Goodison Park.
