Is Harry Maguire Premier League's Most Wanted Defender After World Cup 2018?

Harry Maguire looks like a traditional English centre-half, someone who heads everything away (which he does if needed to be fair) and hoofs the ball away as soon as it comes near him. However, he's showcased himself to be far more than that at this World Cup, and could subsequently be on major clubs shopping lists due to his tenacity, positioning and maturity beyond his years. The down-to-earth, ball-playing powerhouse shows confidence throughout and leads by example as he brings the ball out of defence to spark an attack.

Many should be interested in acquiring his services following the World Cup, England's manager Gareth Southgate summarised what he brings to a team best:-

"He's a defender that's very comfortable with the ball, plays with great composure (and) can defend the ball in the box."
