Manchester United have a limited amount of time to secure transfer target Harry Maguire.

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers has revealed there will come a time this summer when even a bid meeting the Foxes' valuation won't be enough.

Maguire has been one of United's main targets this summer with the Red Devils submitting two bids, including one of £70 million.

Each of them have been rejected by Leicester, who are demanding a sum significantly more than the world-record fee for a defender, which is the £75 million paid by Liverpool to Southampton for Virgil van Dijk.

But Brendan Rodgers has revealed that even a bid meeting the Foxes' valuation of Maguire won't be enough if Manchester United leave it too late.


Asked if there will be a cut-off point, Rodgers said: "There will be that.

"Of course, we can't leave ourselves short. There are obviously going to be targets that we have in mind if Harry was to move on, but we don't have to sell, we don't need to sell.

"If there's not a bid that meets our valuation then we won't go right until the very end because if we then looked to get in someone it could be too late.

"There will be a point in time that even if the valuation is met, it may be too late."
