Harry Maguire says it is a great honour to be the captain of Manchester United, and admits he is keen to lead the Red Devils into glory in the future.

The England centre-back Maguire was handed the captain's armband by United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after Ashley Young sealed a move to Serie A club Inter Milan in the January transfer window.

“It’s a great honour to be the captain of this great club,” Maguire told Inside United. “I’ve not really felt any different or acted any different.

“I see myself as quite a presence on the pitch and quite vocal around the lads.

“We’re a young group and we need experience and we have the likes of Victor [Lindelof], David [De Gea] and Juan [Mata], who are really experienced around the dressing-room.

“We need to help these young boys develop and make sure we develop into a top team and go and start challenging for big trophies.”
