Harry Maguire, a star for Manchester United, has responded to Member of Parliament for Bolga Central, Isaac Adongo following his absurd critique of the defender almost a year ago.
Maguire fell from grace significantly in the 2022–2023 season as Erik ten Hag moved him down the hierarchy. This came after his dismal performance during their awful 2021–2022 season.
During the most recent summer transfer window, the England international was strongly linked to a move to West Ham, but he has now decided that staying at Manchester United is the right choice.
As one of Ten Hag’s bright spots in recent months, the center-back is currently among the first names on the roster.
Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is one of the political rivals of Ghanaian MP Isaac Adongo, who called him the “economic Maguire” in December 2022.
Adongo is now forced to make a U-turn because of Maguire’s recent improvement in play, as the defender is a “transformational footballer.”
“You remember that last year I was very quick to call my big brother, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, Harry Maguire,” he said.
“Mr Speaker, I now apologise to Harry Maguire… Today, Maguire has turned the corner and is a transformational footballer. Maguire is now scoring goals for Manchester United. Mr Speaker, Harry Maguire is now a key player for Manchester United.”
Following this admission of regret, Maguire tweeted: “MP Issac Adongo apology accepted. See you at Old Trafford soon.”
MP Issac Adongo apology accepted . See you at Old Trafford soon 🤝😊

Ten Hag took some time prior to this month’s international break to commend Maguire, saying that he is “playing like we want him to.”
“I am happy with his performance,” Ten Hag after Maguire shone in United’s 1-0 win over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
“I have to say Harry is playing like we want him to play. Very proactive out of possession, dominating his opponent, stepping in when necessary, reading the game, good covering but also in possession very proactive, stepping in, delivering good passes and switching.”
