Leicester City defender, Harry Maguire has told the club that he wants to leave after Manchester United\u2019s \u00a370 million offer was rejected, according to The Sun.<\/p>\n

Maguire, 26, is United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer\u2019s top target to reinforce his defensive options next season.<\/p>\n

The Forces are, however, holding out for a \u00a390m transfer fee for the England international.<\/p>\n

The King Power Stadium landlords are also in a strong negotiating position as Maguire signed a five-year contract extension last September.<\/p>\n

United had an improved offer of \u00a370m turned rejected by Leicester earlier this week.<\/p>\n

The player has made the choice of joining Manchester City instead of United.<\/p>\n
