Harry Maguire officially moved to Manchester United and became the most expensive defender in the world of all time. "The Red Devils" paid around 80 million pounds for the 26-year-old England national team footballer.
Until now, the title of the world's most expensive defender could have been given to Virgil van Dijk, for whom in 2018 the "Liverpool" team paid around 75 million pounds.
The 28-year-old Netherlands national team defender argued that with such a price, H. Maguire will feel additional pressure, but it should not bother him.
"The huge price creates additional pressure, but it shouldn't be something special, because playing for a club like Manchester United you always face that.
It is not easy to deal with pressure completely, but you need to understand that there are many things more important than football. You have to enjoy it, but the pressure will always be felt.
You just have to focus on what you love to do and show your best game. You have to show your best qualities on the field, enjoy the game and not think about external things," said V. van Dijk to journalists.
