If Newcastle United wants to get Harry Maguire this summer, they will need to make a permanent signing since Manchester United is unwilling to loan the defender to the Magpies.
The Sun claims that Manchester United is unwilling to permit Maguire to join a prospective rival without providing him with some type of financial reward.
Harry Maguire appears to be on the verge of leaving Old Trafford this summer. According to recent reports from Football Transfers, Maguire and Manchester United have both decided that it is time to split company.
According to that source, the 30-year-old is desired by Aston Villa, Tottenham, and Everton. However, it appears that Newcastle is also a contender.
The Sun claims that Villa have a chance to sign Maguire on a temporary basis. Newcastle will have to take action to acquire Maguire permanently, though, as Manchester United is reluctant to approve a loan to a team that they would face in a direct rivalry the following season.
The amount Manchester United is willing to pay for Maguire might have a significant impact. He may cost £35 million, according to some reports.
At that price, he might be a standout addition if his new club can get the most out of him. But at the moment, it seems like a big if.
Maguire has struggled mightily while playing for Manchester United. He's been the target of a lot of criticism and jeering. So you can see why his supporters are considering a loan move.
It will be interesting to watch Newcastle's pursuit progress. He is a leader that Kieran Trippier has referred to as "fantastic." And during his tenure on Tyneside, Eddie Howe has presided over some fantastic form improvements.
He might believe that he can influence Maguire in a similar way as a result.

Youri Tielemans, a star for Leicester City, was available for free transfer, but Arsenal missed out. According to The Athletic, the Belgian midfielder has reached an agreement to join Aston Villa and will have a physical with Unai Emery's team this weekend.
The Belgian international was expected to sign with Arsenal after Leicester was demoted at the end of the Premier League season, but according to football.london, the Gunners are prioritizing a deal for West Ham captain Declan Rice. Arsenal wants to add two new midfielders after earning a spot in the Champions League for the upcoming season, with Rice and Moises Caicedo leading the club's shortlist.
The transfer of Tielemans to Villa, who will play in the Europa Conference League next season, is now expected to be completed. The 26-year-old transferred from AS Monaco to Leicester in January 2019, originally on loan, and six months later, permanently.
Manchester United were not really showing interest in the Belgian mid fielder but were being touted to make a move for him given he is a free agent with Erik Ten Hag's squad revamp in view ahead of the summer transfer window.
Manchester United could allegedly let the likes of Fred and Scott McTominay to seek for life away from Old Trafford and they will as well need replacement for them.
