Leicester captain Wes Morgan has praised his team-mate Harry Maguire after the Leicester City centre back surprised many with his stellar World Cup and Premier League appearances.
Maguire, who has only been at Leicester since 2017, has enjoyed a meteoric rise, which has seen the likes of Manchester United and Real Madrid interested in his services.
Team-mate Morgan is happy Maguire stayed with Claude Puel’s side, and says he keeps getting better and better for club and country.
Morgan told ‘Sky Sports News’: “Ever since he’s come in, he’s been a revelation. I think he’s settled in so well, for me he’s just got better and better. The more his confidence has grown, he’s stepped into the England set-up and it looks like he’s been a part of that set-up for years.
“The confidence he has on the ball, the way he starts attacks, he’s got a lot of attributes for a big central defender. He’s had a lot of attention on him over the summer, over possibly going to other teams but I’m glad he’s stayed here.
Asked how important it was that Maguire stayed at Leicester, he added: “I think it’s very important. His first season was last season and he had a fantastic season, he got the player of the year award and he rightly deserved that as well.
“I just want to see him progress, continue to improve and become the great player I know he’s going to become.”
England face Spain in the UEFA League of Nations on Saturday.
