Why is Harry Maguire not playing for Man Utd against Leicester?

Harry Maguire misses the match against his former side as he deals with a knee injury.

Maguire left the King Power Stadium in 2019 in a world-record deal for a centre-back when he signed for the Red Devils for £80million and was made captain by then-manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

He has made just five Premier League starts this season.
