Manager of English Manchester United Erik ten Hag deprived the team's defender Harry Maguire of the captain's armband. The footballer himself reported about this on social networks.
After discussions with the manager today he has informed me he is changing captain. He outlined his reasons to me and whilst I’m personally extremely disappointed, I will continue to give my all every time I wear the shirt. So I wanted to say a massive thank you to the Manchester United fans for all their brilliant support whilst I’ve been wearing the armband.
